Abstract

We have investigated how the ESR signals change with compositions of the binary alloys. Two signals originating from two components are interacting rather strongly with each other and narrowed somewhat by exchange interaction. The origin of the ESR signals has been made clear by comparing those at X-band and Q-band.

    The existence of NH radicals could also be detected by electron spin resonance (ESR) analysis, the results are shown in Fig. 12. It is known that the g factors of Si radicals and C radicals in ESR spectra are 2.005 and 2.0027–2.0032, respectively [39]. The g factors of the ESR spectra in Fig. 12 are 2.0000 ± 0.0010 for all samples according to calculation, nearly equal to that of DPPH(1,1-Diphenyl- 2-picrylhydrazyl radical 2,2-Diphenyl-1- (2,4,6-trinitrophenyl) -hydrazyl), which has N radicals.
