Popis: | Pulsed electron–electron double resonance (PELDOR) is a method frequently used to determine the structure of bio-macromolecule on a nanometre scale. Usually PELDOR experiments are carried out in the high-temperature limit, when the Boltzmann population of spins oriented parallel and antiparallel to the external magnetic field are almost equal. Also the well-developed theories describing PELDOR apply to this case. However, the high-temperature conditions are no more fulfilled for experiments done in a high magnetic field (above 6 T) and at low temperatures (below 5 K), when the Zeeman interaction energy of an electron spin becomes comparable with thermal energy . In this work we demonstrate that PELDOR signals measured at these conditions differ from the usual PELDOR signals. Additional to the standard in-phase component the PELDOR signal at low temperature and high magnetic field also contains an out-of-phase component that disappears in the high-temperature limit. This means that we observe not only the ... |
