Quantitative EPR [Hardcover]

Book Description

ISBN-10: 3211929479 | ISBN-13: 978-3211929476 | Publication Date: June 7, 2010 | Edition: 1st Edition.

This is the first comprehensive practical guide for people who perform EPR measurements, or supervise the use of EPR spectroscopy, and want to obtain quantitative results. No existing book provides this level of practical guidance to ensure successful use of EPR. This meets the growing need in both industrial and academic research to provide meaningful and accurate quantitative results from EPR experiments. Discussed are the various sample-related, instrument-related and software-related aspects for obtaining useful quantitative results from EPR experiments. Some specific items discussed include: choosing a reference standard, resonator considerations (Q, B1, Bm), power saturation characteristics, sample positioning, and finally, putting all the factors together to provide a calculation model for obtaining an accurate spin concentration of a sample. Both relative intensity quantification and the absolute spin concentration of EPR samples are covered  as well. Numerous pictures of the effect of instrument parameters on EPR spectra are included and careful attention to the guidance given in this book will ensure quantitatively accurate EPR spectra.

From the Back Cover

This is the first comprehensive yet practical guide for people who perform quantitative EPR measurements. No existing book provides this level of practical guidance to ensure the successful use of EPR. There is a growing need in both industrial and academic research to provide meaningful and accurate quantitative EPR results. This text discusses the various sample, instrument and software related aspects required for EPR quantitation. Specific topics include: choosing a reference standard, resonator considerations (Q, B1, Bm), power saturation characteristics, sample positioning, and finally, putting all the factors together to obtain an accurate spin concentration of a sample.
