Abstract

The spin exchange parameters J of the extended magnetic solids K2NiF4, K2CuF4, La2CuO4, Nd2CuO4, KNiF3, and KCuF3 were analyzed by examining the structures of their spin monomers and calculating the energy differences Δe in the spin levels of their spin dimers. The trends in the observed J parameters are well explained in terms of the Δe values obtained from extended Huekel molecular orbital calculations. The Δe value of a spin dimer is related only to the antiferromagnetic component of its J, but the spin dimer analysis based on Δe allows one to correlate the nature of the magnetic interaction with the structure of the spin dimer.
