Abstract

Attenuation of the signals of the nutation echo of E’-centers in crystalline and glass quartz was experimentally investigated at room temperature. The nutation echo in EPR was excited in the single-photon regime and formed by two Zeeman-field pulses with duration t1 and t2 (t1<t2) and time interval between them τ. The echo signal was recorded during the second pulse at t≈2t1+τ. It was established that this signal attenuation, measured as t1 increased, follows an, exponential law, its rate Γ is much less than 1/T2 (T2 is the transverse relaxation time), and it linearly increases with an increase in the amplitude of the exciting SHF field B1. The parameters of the dependence of Γ on B1 correlate with the parameters of the analogous dependence revealed previously for attenuation of nutation of E’-centers in quartz in the two-photon regime at T=4.2 K. At the same time, the value of Γ measured with different values of τ is independent of B1 and is equal to 1/T1, where T1 is the longitudinal relaxation time.
