Item Open Access High-frequency EPR and ENDOR spectroscopy of Mn2+ ions in CdSe/CdMnS nanoplatelets(American Chemical Society, 2023-02-20) Babunts, Roman A.; Uspenskaya, Yulia A.; Romanov, Nikolai G.; Orlinskii, Sergei B.; Mamin, Georgy V.; Shornikova, Elena V.; Yakovlev, Dmitri R.; Bayer, M.; Işık, Furkan; Shendre, S.; Delikanlı, Savaş; Demir, Hilmi VolkanSemiconductor colloidal nanoplatelets based of CdSe have excellent optical properties. Their magneto-optical and spin-dependent properties can be greatly modified by implementing magnetic Mn2+ ions, using concepts well established for diluted magnetic semiconductors. A variety of magnetic resonance techniques based on high-frequency (94 GHz) electron paramagnetic resonance in continuous wave and pulsed mode were used to get detailed information on the spin structure and spin dynamics of Mn2+ ions in core/shell CdSe/(Cd,Mn)S nanoplatelets. We observed two sets of resonances assigned to the Mn2+ ions inside the shell and at the nanoplatelet surface. The surface Mn demonstrates a considerably longer spin dynamics than the inner Mn due to lower amount of surrounding Mn2+ ions. The interaction between surface Mn2+ ions and 1H nuclei belonging to oleic acid ligands is measured by means of electron nuclear double resonance. This allowed us to estimate the distances between the Mn2+ ions and 1H nuclei, which equal to 0.31 ± 0.04, 0.44 ± 0.09, and more than 0.53 nm. This study shows that the Mn2+ ions can serve as atomic-size probes for studying the ligand attachment to the nanoplatelet surface.Item Open Access A novel effect of Electron Spin Resonance on electrical resistivity(Elsevier, 2018) Singh, N.; Rani, LuxmiWe extend the well known phenomenon of magnetoresistance (extra resistivity of materials in transverse magnetic field) to a regime where in addition to a transverse magnetic field, a transverse microwave field of resonant frequency is also applied. In a magnetic field, electron spin levels are Zeeman split. In a resonant microwave field, we uncover a new channel of momentum relaxation in which electrons in upper Zeeman level can deexcite to lower Zeeman level by generating spin fluctuation excitation in the lattice (similar to what happens in Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) spectroscopy). An additional resistivity due to this mechanism is predicted in which momentum randomization of Zeeman split electrons happen via bosonic excitations (spin fluctuations). An order of magnitude of this additional resistivity is calculated. The whole work is based upon an extension of Einstein’s derivation of equilibrium Planckian formula to near equilibrium systems.
