“…In the early years, the investigations of the E-field effect of spins by techniques including electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) mainly focus on determining the symmetry of transition metal centers’ coordination environment. , More recently, this related technology is employed to study the SEC of electron spins and to prove the possibility of manipulating electron spins in quantum information processing. ,,− , In a pulsed EPR experiment, the quantum phase of the superposition state of an electron spin will evolve under an E-field pulse, the rate of which is an indicator for the strength of the SEC. While in continuous wave (CW)-EPR experiments, the SEC effect can be detected with E-field modulation (EFM) instead of the magnetic field modulation (MFM) in the standard CW-EPR setup. , Compared to pulsed experiments, EFM-EPR has the advantages of easy operation and not being limited by the phase memory time, providing us a powerful method of SEC measurement.…”
