PFIS-2020 / PQUI-335
Prof. Jair C. C. Freitas
Detailed course information (in Portuguese).
I. Program:
1) Introduction to NMR: Nuclear paramagnetism; the NMR phenomenon; pulses, FIDs, echoes and relaxation; NMR spectroscopy; basic instrumentation.
2) Relaxation: Longitudinal relaxation; transverse relaxation; measurements of relaxation times; relaxometry; applications in low-field NMR.
3) Nuclear spin interactions: Magnetic interactions; electric interactions; homogeneous and inomogeneous interactions; anisotropy of the interactions in solids; hyperfine interactions and magnetic materials.
4) High-resolution solid-state techniques: magic angle spinning; high-power decoupling; cross polarization; 2D methods in solids.
5) Applications of solid-state NMR: glasses and other disordered materials; polymers; carbon materials; magnetic materials; other materials.
6) Laboratory activities involving solid-state NMR experiments.
