The compound (CH 3) 2 CHNH 3 CuCl 3 consists of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic alternating Heisenberg chains with S= 1/2. According to recent electron spin resonance (ESR) experiments at 24 GHz, a pair of ferromagnetically coupled two spins, which is expressed as S^≡ S 1+ S 2, behaves as a spin with Ŝ= 1 below 10 K, and therefore the magnetic ground state in this compound is the Haldane state. Then the dipole-dipole interaction and the anisotropic-exchange interaction between ferromagnetically coupled two spins act as a fictitious single-ion anisotropy, which removes the threefold degeneracy of the triplet state. To confirm the energy scheme of the nondegenerate triplet state, high-field and high-frequency ESR experiments up to 20 T and 540 GHz were performed on the single crystals. The absorption due to the S z=− 1↔ S z= 0 transition in the triplet excited levels was observed below 330 GHz and 10 K. The sign and the value of the fictitious single ion anisotropy were determined to be D*/g μ B=− 0.24 to− 0.48 T at 1.7 K. At 427.6 GHz and under an external field near 15 T, where the field-induced gapless state is formed, the absorption line that was thought to be antiferromagnetic resonance was observed at 1.7 K.
