59Co and 23Na NMR has been applied to the layered cobalt oxides NaCoO2 and HCoO2 at three different magnetic field strengths (4.7, 7.1 and 11.7 T). The 59Co and 23Na quadrupole and anisotropic shift tensors have been determined by iterative fitting of the NMR line shapes at the three magnetic field strengths. Due to the large 59Co quadrupole interaction in NaCoO2, a frequency-swept irradiation procedure was used to alleviate the limited bandwidth of the excitation. While the 59Co and 23Na shift and quadrupole coupling tensors in NaCoO2 are found to be coincident and axially symmetric in agreement with the crystal symmetry requirements, the fits of the 59Co NMR spectra clearly show the presence of structural disorder in HCoO2. The 23Na chemical shift anisotropy can be reproduced by shift tensor calculations using a point dipole model and considering that the magnetic susceptibility in NaCoO2 is due to Van Vleck paramagnetism for Co3+. Electric field gradient calculations using either the empirical point charge model or the ab initio full potential-linearized augmented plane wave method are compared with the experimental NMR data.< Leer menos
