Short summary
Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy is the method of choice to investigate and quantify paramagnetic species. We present the application of an unconventional EPR detection method, rapid-scan EPR, to enhance the sensitivity on an improved design of a miniaturized EPR spectrometer implemented on a silicon microchip. Due to its size, it may be integrated into complex and harsh sample environments, enabling in situ or operando EPR measurements that have previously been inaccessible.
