Abstract: Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of transparent yttria-based ceramics with zirconium and hafnium additives contain signals with close parameters due to paramagnetic Zr$^{3+}$ and Hf$^{3+}$ ions, which have similar ground-state electron configurations of [Kr]4$d^1$ and [Xe]5$d^1$, respectively.
