Microwave response near zero magnetic field was observed in YAIO 3 and CaYAIO 4 crystals dilutely doped with Mn in concentration ranging from 0.05 to 2 atomic %. The response is due to non-resonant microwave absorption, which co-exists with normal electron paramainetic resonance (EPR) absorption due to different paramagnetic valence states of manganese. Mn + and Mrn charge states were identified in Mn-doped YA10 3 , and Mn 2 +, W+ and MnW+ in Mndoped CaYAlO 4 , The low field response has the opposite phase with respect to the paramagnetic absorption. This shows that Mn-doped YAIO 3 and CaYAIO4 exhibit magnetically induced microwave absorption, which has a minimum at zero magnetic field and increases with the applied magnetic field. This effect is similar to microwave magneto-resistance effects observed in manganite perovskites, where spin-dependent electron tunneling occurs between ferromagnetically coupled manganese ions in different valence states. We show, however, that in the present case of diluted paramagnetic systems, magneto-induced microwave losses are due to intramolecular spin-dependent tunneling, where central paramagnetic ion does not change its charge state and spin-dependent charge migration occurs in the first coordination sphere of 2+ paramagnetic ion. Evidences are presented that this ion is Mn exhibiting the highest electron spin S = 5/2.
