✦ Synopsis

Electron-spin transient nutation is exploited to simplify complicated solid state ESR spectra. The procedure makes use of the dependence of the nutation frequencies on the transition matrix element of the excited ESR line. It is demonstrated that this frequency dependence can be used to disentangle overlapping spectra, to influence the intensity ratio between allowed and forbidden transitions and to identify electron-spin quantum numbers and electron-spin transitions.
