  • Title: Sideband patterns from rotor-encoded longitudinal magnetization in MAS recoupling experiments.
    Author: De Paul SM, Saalwächter K, Graf R, Spiess HW.
    Journal: J Magn Reson; 2000 Sep; 146(1):140-56. PubMed ID: 10968967.
    Abstract:
    Recent multiple-quantum MAS NMR experiments have shown that a change in the rotor phase (and, hence, in the Hamiltonian) between the excitation and reconversion periods can lead to informative spinning-sideband patterns. However, such "rotor encoding" is not limited to multiple-quantum experiments. Here it is shown that longitudinal magnetization can also be rotor-encoded. Both homonuclear and heteronuclear rotor encoding of longitudinal magnetization (RELM) experiments are performed on dipolar-coupled spin-1/2 systems, and the corresponding sideband patterns in the indirect dimension are analyzed. In both cases, only even-order sidebands are produced, and their intensity distribution depends on the durations of the recoupling periods. In heteronuclear experiments using REDOR-type recoupling, purely dipolar sideband patterns that are entirely free of effects due to the chemical-shielding anisotropy can be generated. Advantages and disadvantages of the heteronuclear RELM experiment are discussed in the context of other methods used to measure heteronuclear dipolar couplings.
