Major Instrument Facilities
<p>Bruker Avance AV 600 Digital NMR spectrometer with a 14.1 Tesla Ultrashield Plus magnet. The system is equipped for triple resonance and includes a BBO Z-gradient ATMA probehead which covers the tuning range 15N through 31P with proton decoupling, and an inverse triple resonance gradient TXI probe for observation of protons while decoupling 13C and 15N. The system is also capable of solids observation with a broadband CP/MAS probehead. All probes have full VT capability.</p>

<p>Bruker Avance AV 300 Digital NMR spectrometer with a 7.05 Tesla Ultrashield magnet. The system is equipped for double resonance and includes a BBFO Z-gradient ATMA probehead which covers the tuning range 15N through 31P and is also 19F capable. The system is equipped for VT. Both NMR systems run in a Microsoft Windows 7 Professional environment using Bruker TOPSPIN 2.1 PL6 software for data acquisition and analysis. A TOPSPIN data processing workstation is also part of the NMR facility.<br /> </p>

<p>A multifrequency EPR unit operating at 9 GHz and 35 GHz setup for both continuous wave and direct detection time resolved EPR. Light excitation is achieved by a pulsed Nd-YAG pumped OPO laser, which is tunable between 450 - 680 nm and 710-1200 nm. The system response time is ca. 50 ns.The spectrometer is equipped with ENDOR and full high and low temperature VT with both liquid nitrogen and liquid helium capability. Data collection is via a LeCroy digital scope. The system is interfaced to a Linux PC console. Several PC's and a Mac are available with printers for data analysis.</p>
