Abstract: 
The results of an electron-nuclear double resonance study of the cubic paramagnetic Yb3+ center in Cs2NaYF6 and CsCaF3 single crystals are presented. The values and signs of the transferred hyperfine interaction (THFI) parameters for several neighboring shells are determined. It is found that the relevant parameters for the two studied matrices differ, in spite of the fact that the nearest environment of the rare earth ion is nearly identical. A first-principles theoretical analysis is performed for the THFI parameters of the first coordination shell of F- ions. Several mechanisms of metal ion-ligand coupling are considered and it is found that one of them, ligand polarization, explains the difference observed for the THFI parameters in Cs2NaYF6 and CsCaF3.
