Multifrequency Electron Paramagnetic Resonance: Theory and Applications

Description

Filling the gap for a systematic, authoritative, and up-to-date review of this cutting-edge technique, this book covers both low and high frequency EPR, emphasizing the importance of adopting the multifrequency approach to study paramagnetic systems in full detail by using the EPR method. In so doing, it discusses not only the underlying theory and applications, but also all recent advances -- with a final section devoted to future perspectives.Content: Chapter 1 Introduction (pages 1–22): Prof. Dr. Sushil K.
