Abstract

A localized charge distribution (possibly nuclear or an electronic charge density) cannot be treated as a point charge because it possesses multipole character (Jackson, 1975). Among the various multipole interactions, quadrupole interaction plays an important role in investigating, both theoretically and experimentally, the electronic structure of dilute alloys (Abragam, 1961; Slichter, 1980). It provides information about the impurity—induced electron redistribution, impurity scattering potential, and EFG, the basic physical quantities required to study the electronic structure of dilute alloys (Griiner and Minier, 1977). In this chapter we develop elementary concepts of quadrupole interactions and provide the theoretical background of nuclear resonance techniques used to study quadrupole interactions in dilute alloys.
