Ferromagnetic resonance spectra of H2-reduced minerals and glasses

摘要

In an earlier paper, we reported that H2 reduction of basaltic glass, olivine, pyroxene, and plagioclase resulted in the formation of metallic iron, in the darkening and reddening of the reflectance spectra, and the masking of individual spectral features in the visible and near-IR. In this work, we report FMR spectra for H2-reduced minerals and glasses that include the samples studied in the earlier paper. The FMR spectra were reduced at room temperature at a nominal frequency of 9.5 GHz. Sample saturation magnetization reported as F3(0) was measured with a vibrating sample magnetometer.
