Optically addressable high-spin states (S ≥ 1) of defects in semiconductors are the basis for the development of solid-state quantum technologies. Recently, one such defect has been found in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and identified as a negatively charged boron vacancy (VB−). To explore and utilize the properties of this defect, one needs to design a robust way for its creation in an hBN crystal. We investigate the possibility of creating VB− centers in an hBN single crystal by means of irradiation with a high-energy (E = 2 MeV) electron flux. Optical excitation of the irradiated sample induces fluorescence in the near-infrared range together with the electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrum of the triplet centers with a zero-field splitting value of D = 3.6 GHz, manifesting an optically induced population inversion of the ground state spin sublevels. These observations are the signatures of the VB− centers and demonstrate that electron irradiation can be reliably used to create these centers in hBN. Exploration of the VB− spin resonance line shape allowed us to establish the source of the line broadening, which occurs due to the slight deviation in orientation of the two-dimensional B-N atomic plains being exactly parallel relative to each other. The results of the analysis of the broadening mechanism can be used for the crystalline quality control of the 2D materials, using the VB− spin embedded in the hBN as a probe.

The ESR linewidth (∆H pp ) of DPPH coated on the surface of powder specimens of Y 1 Ba 2 Cu 3 O y has been studied under various magnetic field and temperature conditions. ∆H pp increases substantially with decreasing temperature in the field cooled case, whereas almost no linewidth broadening was found in the zero field cooled case. ∆H pp was found to be sensitive to the applied magnetic field. This effect was very pronounced at temperatures lower than 40 K, but decreased strongly with increasing temperature. The broadening of the resonance lineshape has been attributed to spatial and temporal variations of the fluxon distribution in the powder particles.

Room temperature electron spin resonance powder spectra have been recorded for some compounds of the type Mn(ligand)p(anion)2 with hexamethylphosphoramide and nonamethylimidodiphosphoramide as ligands (p = 1 - 4) and BF-4, NO-3, Cl-, Br-, I- and NCS-as anions.The values for the zero-field parameters, D and λ, have been determined and are compared with literature data. It is shown that ESR spectroscopy can be very helpful in elucidating the structures of manganese(II) complexes.The high values for the hyperfine coupling constant of the solvates suggest that in these complexes the bonding between the ligands and the metal ion is essentially ionic.

The triplet state zero-field splittings and the rate constants for the population and depopulation of the triplet spin sublevels have been investigated for chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b in polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) and methyltetrahydrofurane (MTHF) as a function of the concentration. In PMMA both chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b yielded only one ESR spectrum in the entire range of concentration which could be covered (1.5 × 10-5 - 1 × 10-3 mole/1). In MTHF the results were more complicated. At low concentrations (up to 103 mole/1) only one spectrum was observed, at higher concentrations additional spectra were detectable (all together two for chlorophyll a and five for chlorophyll b at 10-1 mole/1). The assignment of these spectra was facilitated by observing the "triplet resonance-field identity" which connects the resonancefield strengths for the canonical orientations of one particular species. Furthermore, the rate constants for some of these species could be determined.
