In the present study, we demonstrate how a stable, easily handled complex of Mn^III, [MnLKNO₃], where L³⁻ is a hexadentate tripodal ligand, trianion of 1,1,1-tris[(3- methoxysalicylideneamino)methyl]ethane, can be used for another purpose entirely. This purpose is as a field and frequency standard for HFEPR that is superior to a “traditional” standard such as an organic radical (e.g., DPPH) with its single, <i>g</i> = 2.00 signal, or to atomic hydrogen, which is less readily available than DPPH and provides only two signals for calibration purposes (Stoll et al. in J Magn Reson 207:158–163, 2010). By contrast, polycrystalline [MnLKNO₃] (<b>1</b>) orients in the external magnetic field of an HFEPR spectrometer (three different spectrometers were employed in this study). The crystal structure of <b>1</b> allows determination of the exact, reproducible molecular orientation of <b>1</b> in the applied field. This phenomenon provides multiple, well-defined resonances over a broad field sweep range (0–36 T) at any of a wide range of frequencies (tested up to 1 THz so far) allowing accurate calibration of magnetic field in a multi-frequency HFEPR study.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":469,"journal":{"name":"Applied Magnetic Resonance","volume":"56 1-2","pages":"137 - 149"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142204655","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

W-capped multilayers showed higher intrinsic damping across all thicknesses, due to strong SOC in W, which enhances spin-pumping, and MDL formation at the Co/W interface, increasing spin-flip scattering. The higher spin-mixing conductance in W-capped multilayers is linked to stronger SOC and enhanced orbital hybridization at the Co/W interface. X-ray diffraction revealed an fcc(111) phase in Co layers up to 4 nm thick, with thicker films showing a mix of fcc(111) and hcp(0001) textures. The Co thin films showed saturation magnetizations near literature values. No dead layer was found in Cu-capped multilayers, however, a 0.3 nm MDL formed in W-capped multilayers due to atomic intermixing at the Co/W interface. FM/NM interfaces are crucial in generating and dissipating pure spin currents, and they significantly impact the damping properties through the influence of seed and capping layers.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":469,"journal":{"name":"Applied Magnetic Resonance","volume":"55 11","pages":"1389 - 1402"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142204656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Biller,&nbsp;Adrienne Delluva,&nbsp;Kevin Finch","doi":"10.1007/s00723-024-01699-z","DOIUrl":"10.1007/s00723-024-01699-z","url":null,"abstract":"<div><p>Lithium-ion batteries (LiB) function because of interconnected chemical and physical reactions across a wide range of size scales—from the overlap of atomic orbitals to flexing of the “lattice” upon lithiation/delithiation to the size/morphology of the particles that make up an electrode film. The cathode electrode in a LiB is based on very high concentrations of transition metals like Fe, Co, and Ni with unique unpaired electron spin environments. Further complexity results from changes to the number of unpaired spins available via redox chemistry, and three-dimensional interactions between spin centers through the lattice. These longer range interactions include ferromagnetic/ferrimagnetic/antiferromagnetic ordering, super-exchange, and the presence of magnetic polarons. Thus, while LiB are commonly viewed first as electrochemical in nature, their magnetic nature is just as important to consider, and their performance and state of health should be interpreted in terms of magnetic changes in the material. We have previously observed fully constructed, commercial 18650 NCA, LCO, and LPO batteries have characteristic magnetic fields up to several hundred micro-Tesla, and this measured field changes in response to different SOH or SOC conditions of the cell. That such a strong magnetic field can be measured is both amazing and very surprising. In this review, we will explore LiB magnetic characterization across all size scales by reflecting on advances in SQUID magnetometry, NMR, EPR, and <i>operando</i> magnetometry. We make a first attempt at answering the question of why there is such a strong magnetic signal to measure on commercial LiB. Understanding the effect of a rich unpaired spin environment across size scales will undoubtedly lead to a better understanding of LiB function and may give insight to improved manufacturing approaches and longer use lifetimes. On the 80th anniversary of Zavoisky’s discovery of EPR, we consider the cathode materials of LiB a “symphony of unpaired electrons” and see that advances in EPR, NMR, and magnetometry are needed now more than ever to understand our technologically complex world.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":469,"journal":{"name":"Applied Magnetic Resonance","volume":"56 1-2","pages":"9 - 31"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142204567","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over the years, several laboratories were established at universities and workplaces of Academy of Sciences, using resonance methods to solve problems of a predominantly chemical nature. In addition to NMR spectroscopy, the application of resonance methods to the investigation of paramagnetic particles, mainly free radicals and transition metal complexes, has become prominent. An essential factor in the development of ESR spectroscopy was the gradual improvement in the quality of the instrumentation available in the second half of the 1960s, mainly through the purchase of commercial spectrometers (Varian, Bruker, JEOL). This trend has continued to the present day. The submitted paper is based on the information obtained from people in various departments who have been active or are still active in ESR spectroscopy. At the same time, the contributions of several researchers who are no longer alive are mentioned. In 1993, Czechoslovakia was divided into the Czech and Slovak Republics.
