Principles of Pulse Electron Paramagnetic Resonance

Book excerpt: Pulse EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance) is one of the newest and most widely used techniques for examining the structure, function and dynamics of biological systems and synthetic materials. Until now, however, there has been no single text dedicated to this growing area of research. This text addresses the need for a comprehensive overview of Pulse EPR. The book covers the basic theory of pulse EPR, as well as a description and critical evaluation of the existing and emerging methods needed for selecting and conducting the proper experiment and analyzing the results. This is an indispensable reference for all scientists who need a thorough grounding in this increasingly popular field of spectroscopy.
