Precise measurement of 1H 90° pulse in solid-state NMR spectroscopy for complex and heterogeneous molecular systems

2007

The 90 degrees pulse calibration is essential in NMR spectroscopy to prevent artefacts in the liquid state or to enhance cross-polarization efficiency in the solid state. We verified pulse-angle (PA) errors due to circuit impedances in solid-state NMR and suggested a possible solution to prevent the inconvenience of PA errors. The classic pulse sequences used to calibrate (1)H 90 degrees pulse lengths by direct detection of protons or by cross-polarization were modified in order to replace single (1)H pulses with (1)H pulse trains. Pulse trains were found to decrease the effect of PA imperfections in the calibration of basic pulses (i.e. 90 degrees and 180 degrees ) for a number of organic …
