EPR and optical absorption of Pd centers in as grown NaCl single crystal are reported. The EPR spectra show that palladium forms the Pd⁺ centre with d_x2^-y2 wave function in the ground state. This centre formation and the accompanying distortion give rise to a superhyperfine interaction of the Pd⁺ ion with the nuclei of the four Cl^- ligands in the plane perpendicular to the C _{symmetry axis.
