Magnetic and structural approach for understanding the electrochemical behavior of LiNi0.33Co0.33Mn0.33O2 positive electrode material
2013
Abstract A systematic study has been performed to investigate the structural and magnetic changes in LiNi 0.33 Mn 0.33 Co 0.33 O 2 , a member of the LiNi y Mn y Co 1–2 y O 2 series, upon chemical lithium deintercalation. Structural characterization of the chemically delithiated Li x Ni 0.33 Mn 0.33 Co 0.33 O 2 samples indicates that the initial rhombohedral symmetry (α-NaFeO 2 type structure) is maintained in the whole 0.3 ≤ x ≤ 1.0 composition range. Less than 1% variation in the hexagonal unit cell volume was evidenced showing a good structural stability of this sample. SEM pictures of the delithiated phases confirm this stability. Indeed, the particle size average undergoes a small dec…
The Li Ni0.2Mn0.2Co0.6O2 electrode materials: A structural and magnetic study
2012
Graphical abstract: EPR signal of the Li{sub 0.6}Co{sub 0.6}Ni{sub 0.2}Mn{sub 0.2}O{sub 2} composition showing that Mn{sup 4+} ions are the solely paramagnetic ions in the structure. Highlights: Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer LiCo{sub 0.6}Ni{sub 0.2}Mn{sub 0.2}O{sub 2} was prepared by the combustion method with sucrose as a fuel. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer Chemical delithiaition was performed by using NO{sub 2}BF{sub 4} oxidizing agent. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer The rhombohedral symmetry was preserved upon lithium removal. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer Lithium extraction leads to Ni{sup 2+} oxidation to Ni{sup 4+} followed by Co{sup 3+} oxidation. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer The EPR narr…
Computational modeling of isotropic electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of doublet state main group radicals
2007
The combined use of theoretical and mathematical methods in the analysis of electron paramagnetic resonance data has greatly increased the ability to interpret even the most complex spectra reported for doublet state inorganic main group radicals. This personal account summarizes the theoretical basis of such an approach and provides an in-depth discussion of some recent illustrative examples of the utilization of this methodology in practical applications. The emphasis is on displaying the enormous potential embodied within the approach. peerReviewed
Electron paramagnetic resonance line shape investigation of the Si-29 hyperfine doublet of the E'γ center in a-SiO2
2007
We report an experimental study by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy of the E′γ center and of its hyperfine structure, consisting in a pair of lines split by 42 mT. Our results show that two types of E′γ centers can be distinguished on the basis of the EPR line shapes of their main resonance line and hyperfine structure. (© 2007 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Investigation on the microscopic structure of E' center in amorphous silicon dioxide by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy
2006
The E′δ center is one of the most important paramagnetic point defects in amorphous silicon dioxide ( a-SiO 2) primarily for applications in the field of electronics. In fact, its appearance in the gate oxide of metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) structures seriously affects the proper work of many devices and, often, causes their definitive failure. In spite of its relevance, until now a definitive microscopic model of this point defect has not been established. In the present work we review our experimental investigation by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) on the E′δ center induced in γ-ray irradiated a-SiO 2. This study has driven us to the determination of the intensity ratio between…
EPR on Radiation-Induced Defects in SiO2
2014
Continuous-wave electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy has been the technique of choice for the studies of radiation-induced defects in silica (SiO2) for 60 years, and has recently been expanded to include more sophisticated techniques such as high-frequency EPR, pulse electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR), and pulse electron spin echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) spectroscopy. Structural models of radiation-induced defects obtained from single-crystal EPR analyses of crystalline SiO2 (alfa-quartz) are often applicable to their respective analogues in amorphous silica (a-SiO2), although significant differences are common.
Investigation of Oxygen-Related Luminescence Centres in AlN Ceramics
2000
The structure of oxygen-related luminescence centres in nominally undoped and Y 2 O 3 doped AlN ceramics was investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) and optically-detected EPR. The photoluminescence-detected EPR lines having g-values of 1.990 and 2.008 were assigned to a recombination between neighbouring donor and acceptor pairs. The two EPR lines at g = 1.987 and 2.003 detected via the recombination luminescence in the afterglow are thought to be due to a recombination between the same, but distant donor and acceptor pairs. The donor was previously speculated to be an electron trapped on an oxygen impurity which substitutes for a ni…
Electron paramagnetic resonance investigation on the hyperfine structure of the center in amorphous silicon dioxide
2007
Abstract We report an experimental investigation by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy on the hyperfine structure of the E δ ′ center in γ-ray irradiated amorphous silicon dioxide materials. This study has driven us to the determination of the intensity ratio between the hyperfine doublet and the main resonance line of this point defect. This ratio was obtained for a variety of silica samples and compared with the analogous ratio obtained for the E γ ′ defect. The comparison definitively confirms that the electronic wave function involved in the E δ ′ center is actually delocalized over four nearly equivalent Si atoms.

Measurement of white wines resistance against oxidation by Electron Paramagnetic Resonance spectroscopy
2018
International audience; Free radical theory of aging hypothesizes that oxygen-derived radicals are responsible for the storage-related flavor instability in wine. In an optimal situation, a balanced-distribution exists between oxidants and antioxidants among wines intrinsic/extrinsic metabolites. Based on the kinetic study of POBN-1-hydroxyethyl spin adduct (POBN-1-HER) formation in wines initiated via the Fenton reaction, a novel tool based on EPR spin trapping methodology was developed to quantify wines resistance against oxidation. Antioxidant capacities of wines were evaluated according to POBN-1-HER maximum signal intensity (Imax POBN-1-HER) and rate formation (r(POBN-1-HER)) kinetic p…
