Abstract
A previous calculation of the mathematical properties of a Kramers doublet for extrema of the mean $g$ value is extended to monoclinic symmetries. The theory is applied to the paramagnetic resonance data for La${\mathrm{F}}_{3}$: ${\mathrm{Yb}}^{3+}$. These data are shown to be consistent with a ${\mathrm{Yb}}^{3+}$ site of ${\mathrm{C}}_{2v}$ point symmetry.

Low-symmetry effects in electron paramagnetic resonance

TL;DR: The role of excited-state orbitals, under the influence of low-symmetry fields, is largely responsible for the different orientations of the principal directions of the various interactions experienced by a paramagnetic ion as discussed by the authors.

An electron paramagnetic resonance study of Er3+ in Bi4Ge3O12 single crystals

TL;DR: In this paper, the X-band electron paramagnetic resonance study of Er•doped Bi4Ge3O12 single crystals at 5 K is reported, and the spectra have been attributed to Er3+ ions in the Bi3+ site, confirming the assumed trigonal site symmetry.

Magnetic properties of a Kramers doublet. An univocal bridge between experimental results and theoretical predictions

TL;DR: This procedure is extended to find a spin-Hamiltonian suitable for describing the magnetic behavior of a pair of weakly coupled Kramers systems in the multispin scheme when the interaction between the two moieties as well as the individual Zeeman interaction are small enough as compared with ligand field splitting.
