Magnetic structure of a single-crystal thin film of EuCd2Sb2

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Jian Rui Soh

We investigate the magnetic order in single crystalline EuCd2Sb2 thin films using a combined theoretical and experimental approach. Resonant elastic x-ray scattering experiments reveal a sharp magnetic peak at q=(0,0,12) below TN=7.2 K, indicative of inter ...

Improving time-resolution and sensitivity of in situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of a powder catalyst by modulated excitation

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Filippo Buttignol

Ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (APXPS) is a powerful tool to characterize the surface structure of heterogeneous catalysts in situ. In order to improve the time resolution and the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio of photoemission spectra, we ...

Deuterated TEKPol Biradicals and the Spin-Diffusion Barrier in MAS DNP

David Lyndon Emsley, Dominik Józef Kubicki, Yu Rao, Amrit Venkatesh, Federico De Biasi

The sensitivity of NMR spectroscopy is considerably enhanced by dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP). In DNP polarization is transferred from unpaired electrons of a polarizing agent to nearby proton spins. In solids, this transfer is followed by the transpo ...

Multi-sample/multi-nucleus parallel polarization and monitoring enabled by a fluid path technology compatible cryogenic probe for dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization

Andrea Capozzi, Jean-Noël Hyacinthe, Thanh Phong Kevin Lê

Low throughput is one of dissolution Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (dDNP) main shortcomings. Especially for clinical and preclinical applications, where direct 13C nuclei polarization is usually pursued, it takes hours to generate one single hyperpolarized ...

Hyperpolarization of inorganic solids

Snaedis Björgvinsdóttir

Solid-state NMR can provide information about the atomic level structure and dynamics of materials. It directly probes symmetry and structure at nuclear sites, and is especially useful for investigation of disordered or amorphous solids that lack long rang ...

Surface-induced vibrational energy redistribution in methane/surface scattering depends on catalytic activity

Rainer Beck, Christopher Scott Reilly, Patrick Floss

Recent state-to-state experiments of methane scattering from Ni(111) and graphene-covered Ni(111) combined with quantum mechanical simulations suggest an intriguing correlation between the surface-induced vibrational energy redistribution (SIVR) during the ...

Scaling analyses for hyperpolarization transfer across a spin-diffusion barrier and into bulk solid media

David Lyndon Emsley, Arthur César Pinon

By analogy to heat and mass transfer film theory, a general approach is introduced for determining hyperpolarization transfer rates between dilute electron spins and a surrounding nuclear ensemble. These analyses provide new quantitative relationships for ...

Two-dimensional Pure Isotropic Proton Solid State NMR

David Lyndon Emsley, Manuel Cordova, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Bruno Simões de Almeida, Daria Torodii

One key bottleneck of solid-state NMR spectroscopy is that H-1 NMR spectra of organic solids are often very broad due to the presence of a strong network of dipolar couplings. We have recently suggested a new approach to tackle this problem. More specifica ...

Quantification of magic angle spinning dynamic nuclear polarization NMR spectra

David Lyndon Emsley, Pierrick Berruyer, Andrea Bertarello

Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) allows to dramatically enhance the sensitivity of magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR). DNP experiments usually rely on the detection of low-γ nuclei hyperpolarized from 1H with the use of cross polar ...
