چکیده

Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of singly charged surface oxygen vacancies (F or color centers) formed by electron bombardment on a single-crystalline MgO film under UHV conditions are reported. The embedding of the defect in a well-defined geometrical environment allows not only for the determination of the magnetic quantities but also, in conjunction with STM studies, for the geometrical assignment of the observed signal to color centers located on the edges of the MgO film.

Binding of single gold atoms on thin MgO(001) films.

In the present Letter the first electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of single metal atoms on a single crystalline oxide surface are presented. For Au atoms on a MgO(001) film investigated here an analysis of the angular dependent resonance positions and the hyperfine coupling to (17)O shows that the atoms are bound on top of oxygen ions on the terrace of the film. This result is in perfect ...

Band Bending in Mg-Colored and O2‐Activated Ultrathin MgO(001) Films

Ultrathin MgO films grown on Ag(001) have been investigated using X-ray and ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopies for oxide films successively exposed to Mg and O2 flux. Studying work functions and layer-resolved Auger shifts allows us to keep track of band profiles from the oxide surface to the interface and reveal the charge-transfer mechanisms underlying the controlled creation of Mg-indu...

Formation of a Manganese Tricarbonyl on the MgO Surface from Mn2(CO)10: Characterization by Infrared, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and X-ray Absorption Spectroscopies†

The goal of this work was to prepare structurally well-defined manganese complexes on high-area MgO powder by vapor deposition of Mn2(CO)10. The supported species were characterized by infrared (IR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and X-ray absorption spectroscopies. The results show that when the manganese loading of the sample was 3.0 wt %, most of the Mn2(CO)10 was physisorbed, but w...

ELECTRON PARAMAGNETIC RESONANCE (EPR) SPECTROSCOPY AND GEOCHEMISTRY IN TIN EXPLORATION AT RENISON, TASMANIA AUSTRALIA

Rock powder of dolomite samples from the Renison mine area of Tasmania, Australia were analyzed by electron paramagnentic resonance spectroscopy (EPR), Atomic Absorption and Mass Spectrometer to identify alteration related to mineralisation. The least-altered dolomite samples, which are not effected by circulation of diagenetic and hydrothermal fluids are characterised by low Mn and Fe and ...

Demystifying EPR: A Rookie Guide to the Application of Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy on Biomolecules

Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, also known as Electron Spin Resonance(ESR) especially among physicists, is a strong and versatile spectroscopic method forinvestigation of paramagnetic systems, i.e. systems like free radicals and most transition metalions, which have unpaired electrons. The sensitivity and selectivity of EPR are notable andintriguing as compared to other spec...
