ELECTRON PARAMAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY

  • Chapter
Handbook of Applied Solid State Spectroscopy

Abstract

This chapter is devoted to magnetic resonance spectroscopy for the investigation of unpaired electron spins. Two terms are used in the literature: electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and electron spin resonance (ESR). We will use the first term in this chapter. During the sixty years since its discovery in 1944 by E.K. Zavoisky [1], EPR spectroscopy has been exploited as a very sensitive and informative technique for the investigation of different kinds of paramagnetic species in solid or liquid states.
