Pulse EPR of Paramagnetic Centers in Solid Phases

We present an overview of the most used Electron Spin Echo techniques and their applications to the study of structure and dynamics of paramagnetic centers in solid phases. A short theoretical section presents the tools necessary to understand the experiments. Three sections describe the experiments that are used to get information on the spin and spatial dynamics of the system, on the distribution of paramagnetic centers in the solid matrix, and on their local environment. Many examples of applications to different paramagnetic centers in various research fields are given.
