Electron spin-lattice relaxation rate is determined by electron spin echo method in temperature range 460 K. The Raman relaxation processes dominate and its theory is outlined in a form suitable for calculations of relaxation rate using real phonon spectrum. A few approximations have been considered: when phonon spectrum and Debye temperature are not available; when Debye temperature is available but phonon spectrum is not; and when spin-phonon coupling is known. All these approximations use the Debye model of phonons and give a non-satisfactory description the temperature dependence of the relaxation rate. A perfect description of experimental results is obtained when real phonon spectrum is considered. The value of the spin-phonon coupling parameter was determined as G = < a vertical bar V vertical bar b > = 1362 cm(-1). This value is discussed by a comparison with G-values published for various ions and crystals. (C) 2015 Published by Elsevier Inc.
