DESIGN AND INSTRUMENTATION OF A POUND-WATKINS NUCLEAR MAGNETIC-RESONANCE SPECTROMETER

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4024311

Problems of instrumentation of a Pound-Watkins nuclear magnetic- resonance spectrometer were investigated. Experimertal data were collected for the sensitivity of the os cillator to a signal from a Watkins calibrator as a function of modulation frequencies from 30 cps to 5 kc and rf tank voltsges from 0.05 to 0.7v/sub rms/. The results confirm Watkins" oscillator theory. An expression was derived for the amount of frequency modulation of the rf oscillator by the Watkins calibrator. For representative values of rf circuit components, this frequency modulation is roughly 0.5 cps at 10 Mc. The rf sample probes constructed for this project are almost free of modulation pickup in modulation fields as high as 23.5 oersteds (280 cps) and a steady field of 7000 oersteds. (auth)
