Consortium for the Development of a Continuous Wave Nanosecond and Subnanosecond Transient EPR High Field Spectrometer

这项来自学术研究基础设施计划(ARI)的奖项将帮助佛罗里达州立大学化学系获得EPR。该设备将加强以下领域的研究：(1)光合作用(2)涉及瞬时顺磁物种的光化学，(3)动力学过程的瞬时EPR。电子顺磁共振(EPR)光谱仪是一种用于获取分子的分子和电子结构信息的仪器。它还可以用来获得有关自由基寿命的信息，这些自由基通常是启动肿瘤生长和/或各种化学反应所必需的。

This award from the Academic Research Infrastructure Program (ARI) will assist the Department of Chemistry at Florida State University acquire an EPR. This equipment will enhance research in a number of areas including the following: (1) photosynthesis (2) photochemistry involving transient paramagnetic Species, and (3) transient EPR of kinetics processes. An electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrometer is an instrument used to obtain information about the molecular and electronic structure of molecules. It may also be used to obtain information about the lifetimes of free radicals which are often essential for the initiation of tumor growth and/or a variety of chemical reactions.
