SILICON-29 HYPERFINE SPLITTING OF THE SiH3 RADICAL

Abstract

Abstract The well defined ESR spectra of the naturally abundant 29SiH3 and 29SiD3 radicals produced by γ-irradiation of silanes adsorbed on the surface of silica gel are reported. The observed 29Si-hf splitting of 182 G is compared with those obtained previously in the inert-gas matrices.
