The electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of bulk glasses of the chemical composition Ge25S75 and Ge30S70 were measured at liquid nitrogen temperature and subjected to computerized separation. The complex ESR spectra of both glasses were found to represent a superposition of three paramagnetic defect spectra, two with orthorhombic tensors g and one with the axial tensor g. The former two paramagnetic centers can be related to a two-atomic defect of the sulfur-sulfur type, the latter to a germanium-sulfur defect. The experimental results are in a good agreement with the non-dangling bond model of paramagnetic defects in Ge-S glasses.

AbstractDangling bond defects (DB) in hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H) have been studied by X-band (9 GHz) Q-band (33 GHz) and W-band (90 GHz) electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. In X-band ESR spectra, all the samples showed asymmetric dangling bond defect signal at g = 2.005 – 2.006. The DB signal shape shows little dependence on substrate temperature in the X-band electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra. In the Q-band and W-band ESR spectra, existence of two centers in DB signals is clearly indicated by the shape of the spectra. The Q-band ESR spectra shape reviles that the peak of one center is at g = 2.0055andthe other is around at g = 2.0060. In addition, the DB signal showed dependence on substrate temperature. The dependence of the DB signals can be explained by difference of intensity ratio of the peaks by these two centers. The signal at g = 2.0060 is consistent with the asymmetric ESR signal observed in the microcrystalline silicon embedded in SiO2. W-band ESR measurement indicates that the signal observed at g = 2.0060 is due to single inhomogeneous species and does not consist of plural species.

Polycrystalline amino acids, when irradiated with 2537 Å light, afford a variety of electron spin resonance signals. These signals are generally stable at room temperature for relatively long periods of time. For a number of the spectra obtained, there is evidence that more than one radical species contributes to the observed spectra. The signals obtained frequently differ from those obtained on exposure to ionizing radiation. The postulated species formed can often be visualized as being formed by effective hydrogen abstraction from the alkyl-substituted tertiary carbon atom or from the —OH, —SH or —NH group contained in the side chain. For L-phenylalanine a secondary radical is obtained, which is ascribed to a cyclohexadienyl radical.

ABSRTACTIn this article, we report low-temperature electron spin resonance (ESR) investigations carried out on solution processed three-layer inverted solar cell structures: PC61BM/CH3NH3PbI3/PEDOT:PSS/Glass, where PC61BM and PEDOT:PSS act as electron and hole transport layers, respectively. ESR measurements were conducted on ex-situ light (1 Sun) illuminated samples. We find two distinct ESR spectra. First ESR spectra resembles a typical powder pattern, associated with gx = gy = 4.2; gz = 9.2, found to be originated from Fe3+ extrinsic impurity located in the glass substrate. Second ESR spectra contains a broad (peak-to-peak line width ∼ 10 G) and intense ESR signal appearing at g = 2.008; and a weak, partly overlapped, but much narrower (peak-to-peak line width ∼ 4 G) ESR signal at g = 2.0022. Both sets of ESR spectra degrade in intensity upon light illumination. The latter two signals were found to stem from light-induced silicon dangling bonds and oxygen vacancies, respectively. Our controlled measurements confirm that these centers were generated during UV-ozone treatment of the glass substrate –a necessary step to be performed before PEDOT:PSS is spin coated. This work forms a significant step in understanding the light-induced- as well as extrinsic defects in perovskite solar cell materials.

ABSTRACTElectron spin resonance (ESR) of dilute paramagnetic ions in nonmagnetic metallic hydrides provides microscopic information about the hydrogen ions in the immediate vicinity of the impurity. By comparing ESR spectra for different host metals and several hydrogen/metal ratios, one can determine material properties including host lattice symmetry, phase boundaries and occupation of available sites by hydrogen. Examples are presented of ESR of dilute Er in group IIIB and IVB metal hydrides, demonstrating the sensitivity and versatility of ESR as a spectroscopic technique.

AbstractElectron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy and calorimetric methods were used to characterize conversion processes in multimineral samples from the Northampton ironstone (NIS) at temperatures between 25°C and 800°C. The beginning of the thermal conversion processes can be determined by the formation of asymmetric ESR spectra with g ≈ 2 at 250°C. The breakdown of the berthierine structure between 250°C and 520°C is indicated by the disappearance of the hyperfine splitting in the Mn2+ spectrum and the formation of magnetite. The decomposition of siderite and calcite was found by calorimetric methods at 580°C and 700°C, respectively. The hematite formation between 550°C and 800°C is explained by the decomposition of siderite but also by the oxidation of previously formed magnetite. The occurrence of hematite as the dominant ferric oxide at 800°C signifies the end of the conversion process of the major mineral phases in the NIS samples.
