Zerfo field splitting plays an important role in determining the electron spin relaxation of Gd(III) in solution. We understand the ZFS as an effect depending on the f electron structure and treat it in the framework of ligand field-density functional theory (LF-DFT). We apply this theory to calculate the ZFS of [Gd(DOTA)(H₂O)]⁻ from first principles, having an insight concerning the...

Hybrid ligand-field theory/quantum chemical calculation of the fine structure and ZFS in lanthanide(III) complexes

Borel, Alain ; Helm, Lothar ; Daul, Claude A.

In: Chemical Physics Letters, 2004, vol. 383 (5-6), p. 584-591

Ligand field effects in lanthanide ions compounds have consequences for optical and magnetic spectroscopy. In the analysis of electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of Gd³⁺ complexes, a major role is played by the zero field splitting (ZFS), which is a high order consequence of the ligand field and the spin–orbit coupling. We present a general parameterized method and a computer program for...
