Abstract
Apparatus and procedures are described for the high-resolution measurement of resonance shifts and for the observation of broad line shapes. Included are a discussion of magnet design and a summary of empirical results obtained in the construction and field homogenization of two large permanent magnets. Narrow, complex resonance lines, with components separated by as little as a milligauss, are resolved by a combination of homogeneous applied magnetic field, small samples, and slow-sweep field modulation. Broad absorption line shapes are plotted at fixed frequency by a system incorporating a regenerative oscillator, a narrow band amplifier, a recording potentiometer, and an electronic control for varying the applied magnetic field linearly in time. A simple cryostat provides stable temperatures from 85° to 500°K. In the case of samples with short spin-lattice relaxation times, such as the metals, improved signal-to-noise ratios are obtained by adjusting the oscillator to super-regenerative operation and observing the frequency modulation associated with the dispersive component of the resonance.
