Hyperpolarization of inorganic solids

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 ...

Solid-state NMR spectroscopy

David Lyndon Emsley

Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is an atomic-level method to determine the chemical structure, 3D structure and dynamics of solids and semi-solids. This Primer summarizes the basic principles of NMR spectroscopy as applied to the ...

Structure determination of an amorphous drug through large-scale NMR predictions

Manuel Cordova, David Lyndon Emsley, Albert Hofstetter, Federico Maria Paruzzo, Martins Balodis, Pierrick Berruyer, Bruno Simões de Almeida

Knowledge of the structure of amorphous solids can direct, for example, the optimization of pharmaceutical formulations, but atomic-level structure determination in amorphous molecular solids has so far not been possible. Solid-state nuclear magnetic reson ...

Theory and simulations of homonuclear three-spin systems in rotating solids

David Lyndon Emsley, Gabriele Stevanato, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Bruno Simões de Almeida

The homonuclear dipolar coupling is the internal spin interaction that contributes the most to the line shapes in magic-angle-spinning (MAS) H-1 NMR spectra of solids, and linewidths typically extend over several hundred Hertz, limiting the H-1 resolution. ...

Promoting Persistent Superionic Conductivity in Sodium Monocarba-closo-dodecaborate NaCB11H12 via Confinement within Nanoporous Silica

Mirjana Dimitrievska

Superionic phases of bulk anhydrous salts based on large cluster-like polyhedral (carba)borate anions are generally stable only well above room temperature, rendering them unsuitable as solid-state electrolytes in energy-storage devices that typically oper ...

Mechanistic studies of DNP and applications of hyperpolarized probes to study renal physiology and metabolism

Alice Radaelli

Dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (dDNP) is a powerful technique that enhances the magnetic resonance signal of nuclear spins by several orders of magnitude. DNP relies on the principle of cross-relaxation by electron spins driven out of equilibrium ...

Bulk Hyperpolarization of Inorganic Materials

David Lyndon Emsley, Snaedis Björgvinsdóttir

Solid-state NMR spectroscopy is a well-established method to obtain atomic-level information about the structure of inorganic materials, but its use is often limited by low sensitivity. We review how solvent generated dynamic nuclear polarization can be us ...

The Role of Alkyl Chain Length and Halide Counter Ion in Layered Dion−Jacobson Perovskites with Aromatic Spacers

Michael Graetzel, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Davide Moia, Joachim Maier, Loï Charles Carbone, Jovana Milic, George Cameron Fish, Algirdas Ducinskas, Michael Allan Hope

Layered hybrid perovskites based on Dion−Jacobson phases are of interest to various optoelectronic applications. However, the understanding of their structure−property relationships remains limited. Here, we present a systematic study of Dion−Jacobson pero ...

Importance of Nuclear Quantum Effects for NMR Crystallography

Michele Ceriotti, Venkat Kapil, Edgar Albert Engel

The resolving power of solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) crystallography depends heavily on the accuracy of computational predictions of NMR chemical shieldings of candidate structures, which are usually taken to be local minima in the potential ...

Order and dynamics in Kagome like compound Cu2OSO4 and other quantum magnets

Virgile Yves Favre

This thesis presents results of studies of novel compounds modeling complex fundamental physics phenomena. Cu2OSO4 is a copper based magnetic Mott Insulator system, where spin half magnetic moments form a new type of lattice. These intrinsically quantum pi ...
