Abstract
Exchange interactions within nearest-neighbor pairs in Cr-doped spinel Zn are studied by means of electron spin resonance. Apart from isotropic exchange, biquadratic and anisotropic terms are needed for an adequate description of the experimental results: . The coefficients are found to be °K, °K, and . Since dipole-dipole interactions would lead to , it follows that a negative anisotropic exchange counteracts the interaction to an appreciable amount. The large negative biquadratic exchange is explained in terms of Kittel's exchange-striction mechanism.
