Pulsed Electron-Nuclear Double Resonance in the Fourier Regime.

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy provides atomic-level molecular structural information. However, in molecules containing unpaired electron spins, NMR signals are difficult to measure directly. In such cases, data is obtained using the electron-nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) method, where nuclei are detected through their interaction with nearby unpaired electron spins.

Compact electron spin resonance skin oximeter: Properties and initial clinical results.

Purpose: Skin oxygen level is of significance for the diagnosis and treatment of many clinical problems, such as chronic wounds and diabetic foot ulcers. Furthermore, skin oxygen levels can be correlated to arterial oxygen partial pressure, thereby revealing potentially dangerous conditions such as hyperoxia (too much oxygen), which may occur in ventilated neonates. Traditionally, skin oxygen levels are measured using electrochemical methods and, more recently, also by fluorescence lifetime techniques.

Advanced surface resonators for electron spin resonance of single microcrystals.

Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy of paramagnetic species in single crystals is a powerful tool for characterizing the latter's magnetic interaction parameters in detail. Conventional ESR systems are optimized for millimeter-size samples and make use of cavities and resonators that accommodate tubes and capillaries in the range 1-5 mm. Unfortunately, in the case of many interesting materials such as enzymes and inorganic catalytic materials (e.

Surface loop-gap resonators for electron spin resonance at W-band.

Electron spin resonance (ESR) is a spectroscopic method used to detect paramagnetic materials, reveal their structure, and also image their position in a sample. ESR makes use of a large static magnetic field to split the energy levels of the electron magnetic moment of the paramagnetic species. A strong microwave magnetic field is applied to excite the spins, and subsequently the ESR system detects their faint microwave signal response.
