In cubic DMS crystals with Cr2+ content the non-Heisenberg part of the p-d interaction together with the strong, static Jahn-Teller effect may lead to a zero-magnetic field splitting and significant modifications of the spin splittings for the valence band. The effect reaches a maximum when all Jahn-Teller distortions are oriented along one of the [100]-type crystallographic directions.
