The magnetic site‐inequivalence of the both Zn sites in ZnGeP 2 (ZnSiP 2 ) could be resolved for Mn Zn 2+ ( S = $ \textstyle 5 \over 2 $ ) by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements. The EPR spectra are analyzed with the generalized spin Hamiltonian (SH) for S 4 symmetry. We found that the Mn substitu‐tion on Zn site causes a strong local distortion of the free parameter x f , which describes the positions of the anions in chalcopyrite structures with c / a ≠ 2.
