A Computational Method for Analysis of EPR Spectra Based on Image Processing #

Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to finish the analysis process much quicker and make the error margin minimum. Image processing technique was applied to the spectra of gamma irradiated diammonium hydrogen citrate single crystals recorded in the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrometer. The peak values in the analogue spectra were detected and transferred to digital environment by using the image process technique. The analogue structures of the spectra were reobtained by using curve fitting methods after the digital spectra were implemented some basic morphological image processing techniques. The spin-Hamiltonian parameters were calculated by using the spectra acquired in our calculation and a comparison made with the results of manually resolved spectra. In this way, the aim of the study was achieved by minimizing the loss of time spent in the analysis stage and the errors related to humans.
