We report on high resolution X-band electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy studies of the spin-ladder material (C_{5}H_{12}N)_{2}CuBr_{4}. Our experiments provide a direct evidence for the presence of anisotropy in (C_{5}H_{12}N)_{2}CuBr_{4} in contrast to a fully isotropic spin-ladder model employed for this system previously. Low-temperature angular dependence of ESR transitions is analyzed employing a simple spin-1/2 dimer model with the symmetric anisotropic exchange interaction.
The angular dependence of electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of Cu(en)(H_2O)_2SO_4 single crystals was studied in the X-band frequency range at temperatures 4 and 300 K. Analysis of the linewidth at 300 K revealed nice agreement with the angular variation of the g-factor. This coincidence is the manifestation of the symmetric and antisymmetric exchange coupling, as main broadening mechanisms in Cu(en)(H_2O)_2SO_4 at high temperatures. The radical change of the angular dependence of the linewidth observed at 4 K can be ascribed to dipolar coupling.
We have studied the temperature dependence of the lattice parameters and the influence of spin anisotropy on the electron paramagnetic spectra of Cu(tn)Cl_2, an S=1/2 quasi-two-dimensional spatially-anisotropic triangular-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet. The variation of the resonance fields with temperature reflects the presence of an easy-plane exchange anisotropy with J_{z}/J_{x,y}<1 and g-factor anisotropy, g_{z}/g_{x,y}>1.
