Multi frequency electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy
Description
Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) is the method for the direct detection of paramagnetic species. This facility works effective on the basis of CW-EPR and it is corroborated with multiple features of 2D operation mode, where the second axis can be time, temperature and microwave power .
Make and Model
Bruker, EMXplus
