Solid-State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Of Unreceptive Quadrupolar Nuclei In Inorganic Materials, Andre Sutrisno
Solid-State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Of Unreceptive Quadrupolar Nuclei In Inorganic Materials, Andre Sutrisno
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Preparation and characterization of inorganic materials is a crucial practice because understanding the relationship between structure and property is important for improving current performance and developing novel materials. Many metal centers in technologically and industrially important materials are unreceptive low-γ quadrupolar nuclei (i.e., possessing low natural abundance, low NMR frequencies and large quadrupole moments) and they usually give rise to very broad NMR resonances and low signal-to-noise ratios, making it difficult to acquire their solid-state NMR spectra. This thesis focuses on the characterization of inorganic materials using solid-state NMR (SSNMR) spectroscopy at very high magnetic field of …
