Nuclear Magnetic Resonance in Zintl Intermediate Phases LiCd and LiZn

Abstract

The nuclear magnetic resonances have been observed for ${\mathrm{Li}}^7$ and ${\mathrm{Cd}}^{113}$ in LiCd and for ${\mathrm{Li}}^7$ and ${\mathrm{Zn}}^{67}$ in LiZn. The Knight shift for Li${\mathrm{Cd}}^{113}$ is 0.39%, for Li${\mathrm{Zn}}^{67}$ 0.20%, for ${\mathrm{Li}}^7$Cd or ${\mathrm{Li}}^7$Zn less than 0.01%. An energy-band scheme is proposed for NaTl as well as LiCd and LiZn.
