Conduction electron spin resonance of small silver particles

Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy has been used to study the conduction electron spin resonance (CESR) of small silver particles stabilized in dehydrated Ag-rho zeolite. Silver particles were produced by hydrogen reduction at elevated temperatures and diameter of the stabilized particles was calculated based on the linewidth of CESR signal using Kawabata theory.
