Resonance-inclined optical nuclear spin polarization of liquids in diamond structures

Nuclear Spin Optical Rotation in Organic Liquids

Nuclear spin induced optical rotation (NSOR) is a novel technique for the detection of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) via optical rotation instead of conventional pick-up coil. Originating from hyperfine interactions between nuclei and orbital electrons, NSOR provides a new method to reveal nuclear chemical environments in different molecules. Previous experiments of NSOR detection have poor ...

Electron Spectrum in Nuclear Spin Polarization Induced Periodic Structures

The novel meso-nucleo-spinics effect of the nuclear spin polarization induced periodic structure creation in a low-dimensional electron system is studied theoretically. It is shown that the periodically distributed nuclear magnetization results in the periodic hyperfine magnetic field which, in turn, creates a periodic electron structure. The electron wave functions and energy spectrum for such...

Nuclear spin relaxation in liquids and gases

The aim of this report is to cover the progress of work in the field of magnetic relaxation and self-diffusion in liquids and gases over a period of twelve months from June 2005 to May 2006, and is a continuation of the report given last year. As in previous periods, this review is limited to work on comparatively simple liquids and solutions of physico-chemical and chemical interest, as public...

Room-temperature in situ nuclear spin hyperpolarization from optically pumped nitrogen vacancy centres in diamond

Low detection sensitivity stemming from the weak polarization of nuclear spins is a primary limitation of magnetic resonance spectroscopy and imaging. Methods have been developed to enhance nuclear spin polarization but they typically require high magnetic fields, cryogenic temperatures or sample transfer between magnets. Here we report bulk, room-temperature hyperpolarization of (13)C nuclear ...
