An electron paramagnetic resonance mobile universal surface explorer.

Many samples cannot be studied by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy because they are too large to fit into the spectrometer and too precious to be destructively sampled for study. An EPR mobile universal surface explorer (MOUSE), also known as a unilateral EPR spectrometer, was constructed for studying this class of sample. The EPR MOUSE can nondestructively record a low frequency EPR (LFEPR) spectrum of a small region of any size object by placing the MOUSE against the object.
