Electron Paramagnetic Resonance spectra of Cu2+ doped into cadmium barium formate dihydrate single crystal were studied at 300 K. The powder spectrum of this material was studied at 300 to 133 K. The values of the g and A hyperfine tensors were found to be temperature dependent. The temperature dependence of the Cu2+ EPR spectrum is discussed in terms of the dynamic Jahn-Teller effect. The angular variation of the spectra indicates the substitution of the host Cd2+ with Cu2+. The spectra were fitted with a tetragonal spin-Hamiltonian, the parameters of which were determined at 300 K. The ground-state wave function of the copper complex has been constructed at 113 K and 300 K.
