  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Biological Magnetic Resonance ((BIMR,volume 21))

Abstract

This introductory chapter is intended as a concise overview of microwave technology and the various devices that comprise a conventional electron magnetic resonance spectrometer. It is hoped that it will serve the reader with background information that is relevant to the necessary understanding of instrument operation, as well as be a precursor to the chapters that follow and describe many of the new advances in EMR spectrometer technology. The three major sections of this chapter correspond to the functional subsystems that would exist in a typical spectrometer, namely the microwave source, transmission line devices, and the receiver.
