A solid solution of phosphate and vanadate lead apatites Pb 10( PO 4)6-x( VO 4)x( OH )2 (x = 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, and 6.0) were reduced with hydrogen gas at temperature 300°C for one hour. All these compounds were investigated by XRD and ESR spectroscopy. Only one reduced oxidation state, V 4+, was detected. Two types of species-like isolated vanadium (+ 4) and clusters of V 4+ were observed. The EPR powder spectrum computer simulations were performed using the program Simfonia from Bruker. Spin Hamiltonian parameters were also calculated. As the concentrations of vanadium ions increase to 2.0, the intensity of the ESR lines increases, and x = 3.0 the intensity of the ESR line decreases sharply. After this concentration, i.e. x > 3.0, there is again an increase in the intensity. The variation of the line shape and intensity of the ESR spectra can be attributed to increases in the hopping rate of the charge carriers (polarons) in different apatite compositions.

In this report, Fe 3+ impurity ions present in green sapphire ( Al 2 O 3) were studied experimentally, by heating a light green sapphire in flowing oxygen atmosphere for 12 h from 1200, 1300, 1400, 1500 and 1600°C, respectively. Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra in X-band (~9.45 GHz ) were recorded by mounting the crystal with the c-axis perpendicular (θ = 90°) to the magnetic field direction. The spectra were recorded and simulated by a numerical diagonalization of spin Hamiltonian matrix in the range from 0 to 180 degrees for every 15 degrees of rotation angle (φ). In our case, only the last two sets of peaks strongly depend on the rotation angle (φ), and each exhibits C 3 symmetry due to two magnetically inequivalent Fe 3+ sites in the corundum structure. For polycrystalline ESR spectra, seven main Fe 3+ ESR absorption peaks occur at the resonance magnetic fields of 100.20, 310.24, 486.80, 525.00, 550.60, 761.00 and 777.00 mT respectively. Specifically, ESR signals show that the number of paramagnetic Fe 3+ ions increase roughly linearly with the heat treating temperature, having the [Formula: see text] ratio ~1.41 at 1600°C.

High-frequency dynamic magnetic properties of quasi-two-dimensional organic conductors (BEDT-TTF)2IBr2ofα'- andβ-phases have been studied by Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. The heating of crystals in theα'-phase is accompanied by their phase transition to theβ-phase, so, the Dyson distortion of the ESR line is appeared. Contributions from the crystal field and symmetry of the system as well as the orbital magnetic moment admixture to the total magnetic moment of charge carriers have been judged by the comparison of the orientation and temperature dependencies of the ESR spectra for theα'- andβ-phases. Experimental data have proved localized states of charge carriers either inα'- orβ-phases.

Polycrystalline solid solution of phosphate and vanadate lead calcium apatites Pb 10 -x Ca x( VO 4)1( PO 4)5( OH )2 apatites [x = 0.0, 2.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0, and 10.0] was reduced with hydrogen gas at the temperature of 300 and 400°C for 1 h. All these compounds were investigated by XRD and ESR spectroscopy. Only one reduced oxidation state V +4 was detected. Two types of species like isolated vanadium (+4) and clusters of V 4+ had been observed. The stability of the apatites increases and the particle size of the crystal decreases with calcium doping concentrations. As the concentrations of Ca increase the intensity of ESR lines deviates due to the spin–lattice relaxation interactions. The deviation in the intensity of ESR spectra can be attributed as the coexistence of paramagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases in the apatites.

The main purpose of this work is to present the ESR spectra and calculate the spin Hamiltonian parameters of 14 N and 15 N impurities in natural diamond. The ESR spectra of diamond crystal were measured on ESR spectrometer operating at X-band microwave frequency. The results of ESR spectra show that the diamond has a P1 center. This center gives rise to three strong resonance absorption peaks at θ = 90°, φ = 0° due to hyperfine interaction between electron spin and nuclear spin of 14 N . The ESR spectra of 15 N impurity consist of two satellites at the same rotation angle (φ). The effects of isolated substitution nitrogen on carbon atom produced a symmetric distortion from Td to C3V symmetry. According to this symmetry, the resonance magnetic field positions of ESR spectra for the rotation angles of 0°, 90° and 180° are almost overlap. The g-factor values and spin Hamiltonian parameters of 14 N and 15 N are: g = 2.0019, A⊥ = 29.73, A‖ = 40.24 and g = 2.0019, A⊥ = −39.90, A‖ = −57.05, respectively.

AbstractFour new oxovanadium(IV) compounds were prepared by template reaction of salicyl-, 5-bromosalicyl-and 3-methoxysalicyl-aldehyde S-methylthiosemicarbazones with 2-hydroxy-, 5-bromo-2-hydroxy-and 3-methoxy-2-hydroxy-benzaldehyde in various combinations. The compounds were isolated as stable solid compounds with general formula [VO(L)] and characterized by elemental analysis, conductivity and magnetic measurements, electronic, IR and EPR spectroscopy. The X-band EPR signals recorded from powder forms of all samples have a single asymmetric line shape and theoretical fit studies proved the presence of axial symmetry around the paramagnetic vanadium ions. The anisotropic Lande splitting factors take values of g‖ < g⊥ < ge = 2.0023. Orbital energy levels for magnetic electrons were determined from theoretically well fitted Spin Hamiltonian parameters. The EPR spectra recorded from solution forms almost have isotropic character.

The spin Hamiltonian g factors and the hyperfine structure constants for V2+ in CsMgX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) are theoretically studied by using the perturbation formulas of these parameters for a 3d3 ion in octahedral symmetry, based on the cluster approach. In such formulas, the contributions from the s-orbitals of the ligands were usually neglected. Here they are taken into account. The theoretical results (particularly the g factor for CsMgI3) show a significant improvement compared with those in absence of the ligand s-orbital contributions in the previous studies.

Compounds of the type of 2-(4'-nitrobenzoyl)methylene-3-ethylbenzothiazoline (I) and 2-bis-(p-nitrobenzoyl)methylene-3-ethylbenzothiazoline (II) were studied polarographically and by ESR spectroscopy to obtain informations about their electrochemical and follow-up reactions and their conformation. Whereas with compounds of the type I the conjugation in their molecules is preserved, with type II the coplanarity of the molecules is disturbed, which is manifested in the values of the splitting constants of the ESR spectra and a slow electron transfer between both nitrophenyl substituents. These conclusions are supported by NMR spectroscopic studies.
