All psyched up: A flexible and general pure shift experiment (PSYCHE) has been developed that offers superior sensitivity, spectral purity, and tolerance of strong coupling over existing methods for broadband homonuclear decoupling. The partial spectra of estradiol in [D6]DMSO obtained by normal 1H NMR spectroscopy and PSYCHE are shown for comparison
We propose a method for efficient storage and recall of arbitrary nonstationary light fields, such as, for instance, single photon time-bin qubits or intense fields, in optically dense atomic ensembles. Our approach to quantum memory is based on controlled, reversible, inhomogeneous broadening and relies on a hidden timereversal symmetry of the optical Bloch equations describing the propagation of the light field. We briefly discuss experimental realizations of our proposal.
The spin echo is the single most important building block in modern NMR spectroscopy, but echo modulation by scalar couplings J can severely complicate its use. We show for the first time that a general but unacknowledged solution to such complications already exists.
BIRD's eye view: Adding periodic BIRD J‐refocusing (BIRD=bilinear rotation decoupling) to data acquisition in an HSQC experiment causes broadband homonuclear decoupling, giving a single signal for each proton chemical shift. This pure shift method improves both resolution and signal‐to‐noise ratio, without the need for special data processing.
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.
