On the basis of the average Hamiltonian theory the possibility of the pulsed narrowing of nitrogen-14 NQR lines in powders is studied theoretically using the fictitious spin-(l/2) operator formalism.The modified Carr-Purcell pulse sequence tg -(z -tFo -2ttgz )~ is shown to be more acceptable for this purpose. The average Hamiltonians of inhomogeneous broa.dening and heteronuclear dipole-dipole interactions as well as the secular part of the Hamiltonian of the interaction of a spin system with torsional oscillations of molecules are proved to commute with the initial density matrix prepared by the first (preparatory) pulse t,. The experimental curves of the spin echo envelopes in the pulse sequence are given. The decay time constants obtained experimentally a t 77 K range between 0.5 s in methylamine and 10 s in sodium nitrite and agree with the spin-lattice relaxation times in these compounds.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
