Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) is a powerful technique to study materials and biological samples on an atomic scale. High-field EPR in particular enables extracting very small g-anisotropies in organic radicals and half-filled 3d and 4f metal ions such as Mn^II (3d⁵) or Gd^III (4f⁷), and resolving EPR signals from unpaired spins with very close g-values, both of which provide high-resolution details of the local atomic environment. Before the recent commissioning of the high-homogeneity Series Connected Hybrid magnet (SCH, superconducting + resistive) at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL), the highest-field, high-resolution EPR spectrometer available was limited to 25 T using a purely resistive “Keck” magnet at the NHMFL. Herein, we report the first EPR experiments performed using the SCH magnet capable of reaching the field of 36 T, corresponding to an EPR frequency of 1 THz for …
