Title: Improving solid-state NMR dipolar recoupling by optimal control. Author: Kehlet CT, Sivertsen AC, Bjerring M, Reiss TO, Khaneja N, Glaser SJ, Nielsen NC. Journal: J Am Chem Soc; 2004 Aug 25; 126(33):10202-3. PubMed ID: 15315406. Abstract: We present the first solid-state NMR experiments developed using optimal control theory. Taking heteronuclear dipolar recoupling in magic-angle-spinning NMR as an example, it proves possible to significantly improve the efficiency of the experiments while introducing robustness toward instrumental imperfections such as radio frequency inhomogeneity. The improvements are demonstrated by numerical simulations as well as practical experiments on a 13Calpha,15N-labeled powder of glycine. The experiments demonstrate a gain of 53% in the efficiency for 15N to 13Calpha coherence transfer relative to the typically double-cross-polarization experiments.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
