Electron spin resonance study of the dynamic magnetic susceptibility of CuO, Cu1-xZnxO, and Cu1-xLixO single crystals [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Results are presented of studies of the dynamic magnetic susceptibility of CuO, Cu1-xZnxO (x ≈ 1.5%), and Cu1-xLxO (x ≈ 1%) single crystals. The orientational dependence of the ESR spectra was investigated at room temperature. The results for CuO are analyzed using a model of a quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnet (S = 1/2) with anisotropic exchange interaction between Cu2+ spins in the chains and exchange coupling between the chains allowing for one-dimensional spin diffusion and spinon excitations. The estimated line width is of the same order of magnitude as the experimental data. Substituting Cu with Zn scarcely alters the spin dynamics of the Cu2+ ions, as in weakly diluted magnets. Lithium doping substantially increases the ESR line width and this is attributed to excess holes forming rapidly relaxing spin complexes with copper ions. © 2000 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodica".
