ESR device using a submillimeter wave gyrotron as a radiation source and a
pulse magnet for high field up to 30 T has been constructed. Our gyrotrons
(Gyrotron FU series) were developed as millimeter and submillimeter wave ra
diation sources and have attractive advantages for ESR spectroscopy, for ex
ample, high power and frequency tunability over broad range. The ESR device
has been successfully applied to three cases of ESR measurements. In the f
irst case, the temperature dependence of ESR was measured for a typical ant
iferromagnetic material MnO at the frequency of 301 GHz. In the second case
, the dependence of the fine structure constant of the ruby on the magnetic
field intensity was measured in the millimeter to submillimeter wave regio
n. In these two cases, the gyrotron was operated by complete cw mode. In th
e final case, a pulse technique was applied to the ESR, the gyrotron was op
erated in pulse mode and the pulsed magnetic field was generated in the syn
chronized phase with the gyrotron operation.
