Abstract

This paper demonstrates that the color of natural yellow fluorites is due to an O^-₃ molecule ion incorporated into the lattice. The center has several equilibrium positions. A detailed EPR and ENDOR study of this center is presented and the motional effects observed in the EPR spectrum are analyzed.
