Prof. Tom Wenckebach (Paul Scherrer Institute, CH-5232 Villigen)17/09/2015, 14:15TalkDynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) uses microwave power to transfer the -- high -- polarization of electron spins to nuclear spins. To speed up this transfer, it is often attractive to increase the microwave power, i.e., increase the strength of the microwave field. This talk discusses how one passes through different regimes when doing so. At low power the solid effect and thermal mixing...Go to contribution page

Dr Patrick Hautle (Paul Scherrer Institute, CH-5232 Villigen)17/09/2015, 14:45TalkIn DNP experiments the high polarization of an electronic spin system is transferred by suitable microwave irradiation to the nuclear spin system. In usual classical schemes ground state paramagnetic centers are introduced into the sample as dopants and their electron spin polarization is determined thermally. This requires temperatures of 1K or lower and a magnetic field of several Tesla. As...Go to contribution page
