Abstract

We present several examples for the application of organic conductors like (Fluoranthene)2PF6 as magnetic field probes. Due to their frequency independent, extremely narrow electron spin resonance line, magnetic flux densities ranging from the earth's field until thousands of Gauss can easily be evaluated with an accuracy better than 1.5 mG. The small sample size required — eg. 2 mm3 for a flux density of about 5 G (S/N ratio 10∶1) — allows to analyse strong magnetic field gradients. Examples for the adaptation of field or frequency-modulation and pulse techniques are given. We point to the requirement of single crystalline samples for high field applications.
