  1. Dynamic Nuclear PolarisationTechniques and Mechanisms Gavin W Morley, Department of Physics, University of Warwick

  2. Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) • Dynamic nuclear polarization • More NMR signal • Applications described in next lecture

  3. Spin polarization Define polarization as: Thermal equilibrium (Boltzmann) polarization is: Ludwig Boltzmann (1844 – 1906) n2 ΔE n1

  4. Spin polarization Boltzmann polarization: So transfer electronic polarization to nuclei

  5. Spin polarization Initial polarizations: Electrons > 95% Nuclei < 0.1% For 8.6 T and 3 K Boltzmann polarization: So transfer electronic polarization to nuclei

  6. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)

  7. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR)

  8. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR)

  9. Overhauser DNP Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR)

  10. Overhauser DNP Forbidden relaxation Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) Proposal: A W Overhauser, Polarization of nuclei in metals, Phys Rev 92, 411 (1953) Followed by demonstration: T R Carver & C P Slichter, Polarization of nuclear spins in metals, Phys. Rev. 92, 212 (1953) Image from www.cnet.co.uk

  30. Dynamic nuclear polarization also… ENDOR-DNP CIDNP PHIP ODNP Pulsed DNP And then… we need nuclear spin diffusion too!

  31. Conclusion • Dynamic nuclear polarization • Transfer polarization from electrons to nuclei • Flip electron spins • Overhauser effect • Solid effect • Cross effect • Thermal mixing • Use temperature jump • Use light • Use parahydrogen
