ELECTRON SPIN RESONANCE FACILITY
The Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) Facility: The ESR facility houses two instruments both of which are used to examine the structure and properties of metal-containing inorganic complexes, peptides, proteins, enzymes, nanoparticles, and biological membranes. The facility's Bruker ELEXSYS 580 X-band spectrometer operates in either continuous-wave or pulsed mode, with variable temperature control. The instrument is also capable of excitation at two frequencies thus enabling Double Electron-Electron Resonance (DEER) for measuring long distances between paramagnetic probes. The second instrument, a high-sensitivity Bruker EMX, is especially useful for the limited sample sizes often encountered in biological studies. The
ESR Facility is located in Physical Sciences Building and managed by Chemistry Professor
Glenn Millhauser.
