Abstract
A spectrometer for optical detection of the electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of short-lived radical-ion pairs produced by ionizing radiation is described. The setup is based on a standard ESR spectrometer equipped with an adapter for optical detection of spectra and a microwave amplifier. In a solution of n-terphenyl in alkanes, the spin-locking effect has been observed. At a microwave power of 10 W, the microwave magnetic induction is 0.5 mT.
