Abstract
AbstractEPR and matrix ENDOR spectra have been examined for polyenyl radicals in γ‐irradiated PVF, PVF2, PVC, and PMMA polymers. Proton matrix ENDOR is observed for all four polymers, and fluorine matrix ENDOR for PVF and PVF2. By line shape analysis of the ENDOR spectra obtained under comparable conditions, delocalization diameters for the unpaired electron of the polyenyl radical in each polymer are obtained. These diameters indicate extensive delocalization over 5–7 carbon double bonds for the polyenyl radicals investigated. It is suggested that these conjugated and crosslinked radiation products account for the observed nondevelopment of electron beam resist PMMA material at high radiation charge densities.
