Conditions for use of K M-formula
•diffuse monochromatic irradiation•isotropic scattering•infinite sample thickness•low concentration of absorbing centers•uniform distribution of absorbing centers•absence of fluorescence
UV – VIS – NIR: instrumentation
•Every compagny has a UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometer withtwo sources ( Nerst glower, D2 lamp) and two detectors (PbS, PM).
•Integration sphere for DRS
•White standards: MgO, BaSO4, HALON.

EPR: METHODOLOGIES
-Hyperfine interaction: unpaired electron-nuclear spin: I mI = I, I - 1,…..,- I each energy level of the electron is split according to m I
selection rule for EPR: ms = 1: mI = 0
- S > ½ more than one unpaired electron: ZERO FIELD SPLITTING
- QUADRUPOLAR INTERACTION: nuclear spins with I > 1/2

CONCLUSIONS
1. Significant technical advancementDRS in situ single crystalEPR wide range of resonance frequencies
in situ pulse
2. Coordination of transition metal ions maximize coordination number site distortion number of Al tetrahedra
3. In situUV-VIS: catalyst activation: chromate Cr3+
active site: bis(µ-oxo)dicopper isomorphous substitution: Co2+
EPR: isomorphous substitution of Fe3+
CONCLUSIONS
4. Pulse EPR:- interaction TMI – Al in lattice- coordination chemistry of Cr(histidine)x in supercages- In situ techniques and pulse EPR give nice results in well-chosen problems.- Specialists are necessary; these are not routine measurements
