What Does EPR Stand For?
EPR stands for Electron Paramagnetic Resonance
Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) is a powerful spectroscopic technique used to study species with unpaired electrons, such as radicals and transition metal complexes. By applying a magnetic field and microwave radiation, EPR measures the energy transitions of these unpaired electrons, providing valuable information about their electronic environments, molecular structure, and dynamics. This method is widely utilized in chemistry, biology, and materials science for applications including studying reaction mechanisms, characterizing metal ions in biological systems, and investigating the properties of novel materials.
