Observation of Conduction-Electron Density Oscillations at the Surface of Platinum Particles
Anomalously large 195Pt NMR linewidths have been observed in Pt particles with dia. ranging from 33 to 200 A. Spin-echo measurements revealed the presence of nuclear spin-exchange diffusion in large magnetic field gradients attributable to the large indirect exchange interaction in Pt. These data in...

Zusammenfassung: | Anomalously large 195Pt NMR linewidths have been observed in Pt particles with dia. ranging from 33 to 200 A. Spin-echo measurements revealed the presence of nuclear spin-exchange diffusion in large magnetic field gradients attributable to the large indirect exchange interaction in Pt. These data indicate that there are electron spin-density oscillations near the Pt surface consistent with a simple model ascribing free-electron behavior to the s-like conduction electrons.19 refs.--AA |
