X-Band CW-EPR Spectrometer
Sample EPR /ESR Spectra Examples:
EPR (Electron Paramagnetic Resonance) or ESR (Electron Spin Resonance) technique measures microwave frequency absorption by the EPR active free radical or paramagnetic metal ion containing molecule or any molecular species including atomic or molecular fragments, for example, Hydrogen atom (H), Hydroxyl radical (OH), Ferric ion (Fe3+) or Manganese ion (Mn2+) when placed in high magnetic field. The molecular or atomic species are ‘EPR Active’ when it possesses unpaired electron or electrons and therefore, have electron ‘SPIN’ or ‘electron spin angular momentum’, S. In other words, the material must have electron spin angular momentum for it to show EPR spectrum. The hydrogen atom has 1 unpaired electron that combined with the proton nucleus (H-1, SPIN=1/2), will show a simple 2-line EPR spectrum. There are many stable free radicals and paramagnetic compounds that are important in chemistry, medicine, material, and in pharmaceutical industry.
These materials with electron spins are called ‘Paramagnetic’ materials and NMR measurement on these samples will give either undetectable or broad and shifted peaks. EPR measurement will provide structural identification, quantification and simply the nature of the materials.
We specialize in both solution and solid-state EPR Analysis of a variety of stable organic and inorganic samples, metal ions, solar cell materials, defect densities including many free radicals and metal ion complexes.
