Applications of the Photoacoustic Effect to Ferromagnetic Resonance and Electron Paramagnetic Resonance

  • Chapter
Book cover Photoacoustic Effect Principles and Applications

Abstract

This article describes the rapid development in the application of the photoacoustic method of detecting ferromagnetic and paramagnetic solids. Recent measurements of ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) in thin films of Ni, Fe and Fe80B20 and of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) in polycrystalline samples of DPPH, CuSO45H2O and Fe-Tetraphenylporphyrin are discussed and details are given of the various experimental arrangements used. The photoacoustic technique is compared critically with more conventional methods (thermal and electronic) of detecting EPR and FMR.
