Endogenous O-17 Dynamic Nuclear Polarization of Gd-Doped CeO2 from 100 to 370 K

David Lyndon Emsley, Snaedis Björgvinsdóttir, Georges Guévork Jean-Jacques Menzildjian, Michael Allan Hope, Bowen Zhang, Moreno Lelli, Zhuoran Wang

O-17 NMR is an invaluable tool to study the structure and dynamics of oxide materials but remains challenging to apply in many systems. Even with isotopic enrichment, studies of samples with low masses and/or concentrations of the active species, such as t ...

Open and Closed Radicals: Local Geometry around Unpaired Electrons Governs Magic-Angle Spinning Dynamic Nuclear Polarization Performance

Dominik Józef Kubicki, Manuel Cordova, David Lyndon Emsley, Gabriele Stevanato, Yu Rao, Georges Guévork Jean-Jacques Menzildjian, Moreno Lelli

The development of magic-angle spinning dynamic nuclear polarization (MAS DNP) has allowed atomic-level characterization of materials for which conventional solid-state NMR is impractical due to the lack of sensitivity. The rapid progress of MAS DNP has be ...

TinyPols: a family of water-soluble binitroxides tailored for dynamic nuclear polarization enhanced NMR spectroscopy at 18.8 and 21.1 T

David Benjamin Roger Antoine Gajan, David Lyndon Emsley, Gabriele Stevanato, Georges Guévork Jean-Jacques Menzildjian, Moreno Lelli

Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) has recently emerged as a key method to increase the sensitivity of solid-state NMR spectroscopy under Magic Angle Spinning (MAS). While efficient binitroxide polarizing agents such as AMUPol have been developed for MAS D ...

A Factor Two Improvement in High-Field Dynamic Nuclear Polarization from Gd(III) Complexes by Design

Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Marinella Mazzanti, Dominik Józef Kubicki, David Lyndon Emsley, Gabriele Stevanato, Georges Guévork Jean-Jacques Menzildjian

Gadolinium(III) complexes have recently been demonstrated to have potential as polarizing agents for high-field dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) NMR spectroscopy. By tailoring the ligand design to reduce the zero-field splitting (ZFS), we demonstrate a q ...

BDPA-Nitroxide Biradicals Tailored for Efficient Dynamic Nuclear Polarization Enhanced Solid-State NMR at Magnetic Fields up to 21.1 T

David Benjamin Roger Antoine Gajan, Dominik Józef Kubicki, Arthur César Pinon, David Lyndon Emsley, Aaron James Rossini, Georges Guévork Jean-Jacques Menzildjian, Moreno Lelli

Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has developed into an invaluable tool for the investigation of a wide range of materials. However, the sensitivity gain achieved with many polarizing agents suffers from an unf ...
