Abstract:
The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of iron-doped ZnSe single crystals were studied. In addition to cubic Fe$^{3+}$ and Mn$^{2+}$ centers and also Fe$^{2+}$, and Cr$^{2+}$ centers, monoclinic Fe$^{3+}$ complexes locally compensated by Cu$^+$ ions were revealed. Some trigonal centers with a spin of 3/2 were also found and studied. The zero-field splittings of monoclinic centers were measured, and the parameters of the monoclinic and trigonal spin Hamiltonians were determined. The nature of trigonal centers was discussed.
