Molecular and Spin Dynamics in the Paramagnetic Endohedral Fullerene Gd3N@C-80

László Forró, Bálint Náfrádi, Agnes Antal

Gd3N@C-80 endohedral fullerene, a starting material for a potential magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent, is investigated by high-frequency electron spin resonance (ESR) and SQUID magnetometry. The magnetic moments of the three Gd ions of the endohedr ...

Transformations and structures in the Al–Zn–Mg alloy system: A diffraction study using synchrotron radiation and electron precession

Philip Pattison

The structure of the hardening η′-phase precipitates in Al–Zn–Mg alloys has been investigated by using precession electron diffraction and X-ray synchrotron radiation diffraction. The latter was recorded as a three-dimensional, continuous intensity distrib ...

Magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy of Co and Fe adatoms on the (111) surfaces of Pd and Rh

Harald Brune, Stefano Rusponi, Pietro Gambardella, Anne Lehnert

We performed a combined theoretical and experimental investigation of the orbital magnetism and magnetocrystalline anisotropy of isolated Co and Fe adatoms on Pd(111) and Rh(111). Theoretical calculations of the spin and orbital moments are based on ab ini ...

Surface characterization of MnxGe1-x and CryMnxGe1-x-y dilute magnetic semiconductors

Harald Brune, Stefano Rusponi, Pietro Gambardella, Laurent Claude

We have used x-ray photoemission electron microscopy (XPEEM) and x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) to characterize MnxGe1-x and CryMnxGe1-x-y films grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The surface layers of the as-grown films probed by XPEEM present segregat ...

Localized short-echo-time proton MR spectroscopy with full signal-intensity acquisition

Rolf Gruetter, Giulio Gambarota, Hanne Frenkel

We developed a short-echo-time (TE) sequence for proton localized spectroscopy by combining a 1D add-subtract scheme with a doubly slice-selective spin-echo (SE) sequence. The sequence preserves the full magnetization available from the selected volume of ...

Phosphinic derivative of DTPA conjugated to a G5 PAMAM dendrimer: an 17O and 1H relaxation study of its Gd(III) complex

André Merbach, Lothar Helm

A DTPA-based chelate containing one phosphinate group was conjugated to a generation 5 polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer via a benzylthiourea linkage. The Gd(III) complex of this novel conjugate has potential as a contrast agent for magnetic resonance imagi ...

A High-Frequency EPR Study of Frozen Solutions of Gd(III) Complexes: Straightforward Determination of the Zero-Field Splitting Parameters and Simulation of the NMRD Profiles

André Merbach, Lothar Helm, Alain Borel

Gd(III) (S = 7/2) polyaminocarboxylates, used as contrast agents for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), were studied in frozen solutions by High-Frequency-High-Field Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (HF-EPR). EPR spectra recorded at 240 GHz and temperatures ...
