Nuclear magnetic resonance in lithium metal: Thermal mixing
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a calculation of the thermal mixing rate ~ ' between nuclear Zeeman and dipolar reservoirs in the presence of large rf fields. We applied this calculation to slow-motion diffusion in lithium metal. In particular, we measured the rotating frame spin-lattice relaxation time T,p as a function of H, and observed the transition between the regions of validity of low-field and high-field theories. Furthermore, we demonstrated that this transition occurs when T,p T

متن کاملStructural determination of the principal byproduct of the lithium-ammonia reduction method of methamphetamine manufacture.
One common method of illicit methamphetamine manufacture utilizes an alkali metal, typically lithium, and liquid ammonia to chemically reduce ephedrine or pseudoephedrine to form methamphetamine. This method is often referred to as the lithium-ammonia reduction method or the Birch reduction method. While the hydroxyl group of ephedrine is more reactive than the aromatic ring, excess alkali meta...
متن کاملNuclear ordering in lithium and an upper limit on its ambient pressure superconducting transition temperature.
We have discovered spontaneous ordering of nuclear spins in lithium metal by NMR measurements at very low temperatures. In low magnetic fields, B<0.2 mT, the NMR spectra show a pronounced low-frequency anomaly. Also, nonadiabatic response to a slowly varying magnetic field was observed. A rich phase diagram with three different nonparamagnetic regions is proposed. We estimate a critical spin te...

The fluorolytic sol-gel synthesis for binary metal fluorides (AlF₃, CaF₂, MgF₂) has been extended to ternary and quaternary alkaline earth metal fluorides (CaAlF₅, Ca₂AlF₇, LiMgAlF₆). The formation and crystallization of nanoscopic ternary CaAlF₅ and Ca₂AlF₇ sols in ethanol were studied by 19F liquid and solid state NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectroscopy, as well as transmission electron...
متن کاملDynamic Nuclear Polarization of Biological Systems at High Magnetic Fields
Dynamic nuclear polarization methods were studied at high magnetic field strength and were applied to improve the sensitivity of the nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of biological solids. Studies of the dynamics of electron-nuclear polarization transfer via the solid effect and thermal mixing at 5 Tesla are described for two systems: the free radical BDPA doped into polystyrene and the n...
