Abstract
The X-band excited-state electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of -acetate nanomagnet crystals has been measured. Three lines belonging to the transition at and to the and high-field transitions at 7800 and 9200 G, respectively, were detected below 50 K in agreement with the energy level scheme obtained from high-field EPR. The lines are rather broad. is shorter than 30 ns and Similarly broad excited-state EPR spectra were also observed in a Fe(8) single crystal.
