Health | A technique applicable to the wide variety of substances which exhibit paramagnetism because of the magnetic moments of unpaired electrons. The spectra are useful for detection and identification, for determination of electron structure, for study of interactions between molecules, and for measurement of nuclear spins and moments. (From McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science and Technology, 7th edition) Electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopy is a variant of the technique which can give enhanced resolution. Electron spin resonance analysis can now be used in vivo, including imaging applications such as magnetic resonance imaging. (references) |

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Because most stable molecules have a closed-shell configuration without a suitable unpaired spin, the technique is less widely used than NMR.
The degeneracy of the spin states is lifted by the presence of a strong magnetic field, and radiation in the microwave part of the electromagnetic spectrum is used to induce transitions between spin states.
To detect some subtle details of some systems, high-field-high-frequency electron spin resonance spectroscopy is required. While ESR is affordable for a medium-sized academic laboratory, there are few scientific centers in the world offering high-field-high-frequency electron spin resonance spectroscopy, among them ILL in Grenoble, France and one in Tallahassee, USA.
