Abstract
The pulsed EPR free induction decay (FID) signals of the photo-excited pentacene triplet state are reported for three mixed crystals at room temperature: pentacene-h14 in p-terphenyl, pentacene-h14 in benzoic acid, and pentacene-d14 in p-terphenyl. The recorded FID signals have relatively long decay times of about four microseconds, presumably due to the reduced hyperfine interactions in the zero magnetic field. The time domain FID signals transform to spectral components typically narrower than 500 kHz, allowing us to determine the pentacene triplet zero field splitting parameters to better accuracy than previously reported. Further, a new experimental technique using the high speed magnetic field jumping capability enables us to examine the anisotropic hyperfine and quadrupole interactions.
