Description
The paramagnetic susceptibility of small divalent clusters (Mg and Zn) trapped in Xe and Adamantane matrices has been studied with EPR spectroscopy. This study represents an observation of the transition between the atomic behaviour and the extended solid. The signal of clusters >15 A as a function of temperatures shows that their susceptibility has a Curie-low behaviour. These results are contrary to the quantum size effects models of Kubo and Muehlschlegel. (orig.)
