Conduction electron spin resonance of small silver particles

Spectrochim Acta A Mol Biomol Spectrosc. 2006 Jan;63(1):189-91. doi: 10.1016/j.saa.2005.05.002. Epub 2005 Jun 22.

Abstract

Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy has been used to study the conduction electron spin resonance (CESR) of small silver particles stabilized in dehydrated Ag-rho zeolite. Silver particles were produced by hydrogen reduction at elevated temperatures and diameter of the stabilized particles was calculated based on the linewidth of CESR signal using Kawabata theory.
