MEASUREMENT OF NARROW MAGNETIC RESONANCE LINEWIDTHS.

Abstract

A discussion is given of the origin of various errors that may occur in the measurement by cavity perturbation techniques of narrow magnetic resonance linewidths. It is shown that the absorption by a spherical magnetic sample in a microwave cavity varies as sin (2) theta, where theta is the angle between the static and microwave magnetic fields. A method of choosing the optimum cavity parameters for minimizing measurement errors is presented, and a proof is given of a tuning technique that has been used to compensate for dispersion of the cavity resonance during a measurement. A detailed description is presented of a magnetic resonance spectrometer that has been used for the accurate measurement of magnetic resonance absorptions with widely varying intensities and very narrow linewidths.
