The EPR is studied of F A centres in CaF 2 :Li + , CaF 2 :Na + , and SrF 2 :Na + . In CaF 2 :Li + , the spectrum is very similar to that of F centres in pure CaF 2 : the superhyperfine coupling constant with lithium is unmeasurable. On the other hand, in CaF 2 :Na + and SrF 2 :Na + , the superhyperfine coupling with a sodium nucleus is noticeable. The EPR of so‐called “F 2A ” centres in the same matrices is also observed, which corroborates our previous magnetic circular dichroism conclusions: “F 2A ” centres do not correspond to two electrons in two adjoining anion vacancies with a substitutional sodium in close vicinity. From the observed superhyperfine structure, it is not yet found what is the genuine microscopic structure of these “F 2A ” centres.
