Abstract
The transferred hyperfine interactions of Ce3+ centers with 27Al neighbor nuclei in heavily cerium doped yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) are resolved using Pulsed-Electron Nuclear Double Resonance (Pulsed-ENDOR). It is demonstrated that substitution of Ce3+ for Y3+ in YAG crystals leads to the strong reduction of the nuclear quadrupole coupling at the tetrahedral aluminum d-sites (e2qQ/h ≈ 4.67 MHz).
