Abstract

Phase-memory times T M for E′-centers in various quartz samples were measured by pulse-ESR. Manually ground quartz followed by γ-irradiation, α-irradiated quartz and that from a natural uranium deposit showed T M <8 μs indicating strong spin-spin interactions due to localized spins. Quartz glass and neutron-irradiated quartz showed longer T M of 15–18μs. Natural SiO 2 with dense spins, (∼ 3.96 Ga) and 12 sandstone from an impact crater were also examined.
