EPR Studies of Atomic Impurities in Rare Gas Matrices

  • Chapter
EPR of Free Radicals in Solids

Part of the book series: Progress in Theoretical Chemistry and Physics ((PTCP,volume 10))

Abstract

In this article we give an overview of the matrix isolation technique combined with electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) detection for embedded atomic impurities in solid rare gases. A special emphasis is put on impurity — matrix coupling effects combining both experimental and theoretical approaches.
