X-ray study of the light-induced metastable state of a spin-crossover compound
2000
Iron(II) complexes exhibiting thermal spin crossover may be converted from the1A1low-spin (LS) state to the5T2high-spin (HS) state by irradiation with green light (light-induced excited spin-state trapping, LIESST). The lifetime of the metastable LIESST state may be sufficiently long for X-ray diffraction study. The lattice parameters of a single crystal of [Fe(ptz)6](BF4)2(ptz = propyltetrazole) were measured between 300 and 10 K, while the crystal changed from the HS to the LS state near 135 K. Using the green light (514 nm) of an argon-ion laser, the crystal was quantitatively converted to the metastable LIESST state at 10 K; its lattice parameters were measured up to 50 K, at which poin…
The LIESST state of [Fe(pic)3]Cl2.EtOH – the superstructure under continuous irradiation
2005
The superstructure recently discovered in [Fe(pic)3]Cl2.EtOH at temperatures inside the step region of the high-spin–low-spin transition curve sheds new light on the anomalous transition behaviour in spin crossover compounds. The structure of the metastable LIESST state of [Fe(pic)3]Cl2.EtOH at 10 K has been measured. The decay has been followed by X-ray diffraction using a CCD camera in order to detect reflections of the superstructure building up during the decay. No signal above the noise of the CCD camera was observed, so that even diffuse scattering could not be detected. This finding is in agreement with correlation lengths of pair correlations of molecules in the HS and LS states bei…
EFFECT OF A FLUCTUATING ELECTRIC FIELD ON ELECTRON SPIN DEPHASING TIME IN III–V SEMICONDUCTORS
2012
We investigate the electron spin dephasing in low n-doped GaAs semiconductor bulks driven by a correlated fluctuating electric field. The electron dynamics is simulated by a Monte Carlo procedure which keeps into account all the possible scattering phenomena of the hot electrons in the medium and includes the evolution of spin polarization. Spin relaxation times are computed through the D’yakonov–Perel process, which is the only relevant relaxation mechanism in zinc-blende semiconductors. The decay of initial spin polarization of conduction electrons is calculated for different values of field strength, noise intensity and noise correlation time. For values of noise correlation time compara…
ESR Spectra o f Normal Human Serum after Treatment with Complement Activating Agents*
1980
Abstract We describe the appearance of a free-radical signal in the ESR spectrum of normal human serum incubated with several complement activating agents. The intensity of this signal is dependent of dose of activating agents, time and temperature. Signals elicited by different complement activators differ in morphology and kinetics. Inhibition by treatment with EDTA and the presence of the signal in activated C 6-deficient rabbit serum suggest that the con-vertase forming steps of complement activation (C2 to 5) could be the source of free-radical containing molecules.

NUCLEAR MAGNETIC ORDER, USE OF SPIN DEPENDENT AMPLITUDES
1993
The use of the spin dependent part of the nuclear scattering length gives access to neutron scattering to the field of nuclear magnetism. This paper presents the theoretical and experimental background for such experiments. The available results on nuclear order will be reviewed and put if possible in the larger frame of many body physics. The possibilities of using nuclear magnetism for new applications or the improvement of scattering techniques will be stressed as well.
Dark-matter detection by elastic and inelastic LSP scattering on 129Xe and 131Xe
2008
Abstract We calculate the nuclear matrix elements involved in the elastic and inelastic scattering of the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) on the 129Xe and 131Xe dark-matter detector nuclei. This is the first time when both channels are addressed within the same unified microscopic nuclear framework, namely we perform large-scale shell-model calculations with a realistic two-body interaction to produce the participant nuclear wave functions. These wave functions successfully reproduce the spectroscopic data on the relevant magnetic moments and M1 decays. The tested wave functions are used to produce annual average detection rates for both the elastic and inelastic channels. It is foun…
First Example of Coexistence of Thermal Spin Transition and Liquid-Crystal Properties.
2001
The rodlike FeIII complex of an N-alkyloxysalicylidenyl-N'-ethyl-N-ethylenediamine ligand, shown as a computer model in the picture, is the first compound in which spin-crossover (SC) and liquid-crystalline (LC) properties coexist. This synergy should allow the magnetic and optical properties of SC compounds to be combined with the sensitivity of the LC state to electromagnetic fields.
Cryogenic 35GHz pulse ENDOR probehead accommodating large sample sizes: Performance and applications.
2009
The construction and performance of a cryogenic 35GHz pulse electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) probehead for large samples is presented. The resonator is based on a rectangular TE(102) cavity in which the radio frequency (rf) B(2)-field is generated by a two turn saddle ENDOR coil crossing the resonator along the sample axis with minimal distance to the sample tube. An rf power efficiency factor is used to define the B(2)-field strength per square-root of the transmitted rf power over the frequency range 2-180MHz. The distributions of the microwave B(1)- and E(1)-field, and the rf B(2)-field are investigated by electromagnetic field calculations. All dielectrics, the sample tube, and…
Application of Electron Spin Resonance technique in neutron dosimetry
2012
Along with the Neutron Capture Therapy (NCT) development and with the use of thermal neutrons for radiotherapeutic purposes, many efforts have been devoted to the beam characterization in order to optimize the therapy procedures. Reliable dosimetric measurements should be able to determine the various components (neutronic and photonic) of the mixed beam usually employed for therapy [1]. We have studied the effect of the additive such as gadolinium and 10B-boric acid on the neutron sensitivity of alanine ESR dosimeters exposed to a gamma and mixed (n, gamma) field mainly composed by thermal neutrons. We have chosen both this additive nuclei because of their very high capture cross section t…
