Electron spin echo study of polyacetylene.

ELECTRON SPIN RESONANCE AND ELECTRON-SPIN-ECHO STUDY OF ORIENTED MULTILAYERS OF La-DIPALMITOYLPHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINE

A detailed electron spin resonance (ESR) study of spin-labeled-oriented multilayers of L.-dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) water systems for low water content (2-10% by weight) is reported with the purpose of characterizing the dynamical and structural properties of model membrane systems. Emphasis is placed on the value of combining such experiments with detailed simulations based on curr...

Spin-Charge Separation in Polyacetylene

Electron spin echo studies of the copper complexes of conalbumin.

Electron spin echo envelope spectroscopy was used to probe the two metal binding sites of Cu(II)-conalbumin. The echo envelope spectrum of Cu(II)-conalbumin-oxalate, with metal ion at either one or both of the binding sites, contains lines arising from the interaction of the electron spin of Cu(II) with bound imidazole, demonstrating histidine ligation to the metal ion. The 13C superhyperfine i...

Ultrafast optical spin echo for electron spins in semiconductors.

Spin-based quantum computing and magnetic resonance techniques rely on the ability to measure the coherence time T(2) of a spin system. We report on the experimental implementation of all-optical spin echo to determine the T(2) time of a semiconductor electron-spin system. We use three ultrafast optical pulses to rotate spins an arbitrary angle and measure an echo signal as the time between pul...

A new mechanism for electron spin echo envelope modulation.

Electron spin echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) has been observed for the first time from a coupled heterospin pair of electron and nucleus in liquid solution. Previously, modulation effects in spin-echo experiments have only been described in liquid solutions for a coupled pair of homonuclear spins in nuclear magnetic resonance or a pair of resonant electron spins in electron paramagnetic reson...
