In this work we present ways to minimize the perturbation of the applied magnetic field by optimizing solid-state NMR probe structures. This is achieved by a combination of simulations and experiments, which take susceptibilities of all parts in the NMR probe into account to then study the net effect upon the sample. Based on those results, modifications to NMR probes can be made, to minimize unwanted contributions. The smaller the perturbation of the applied magnetic field, the narrower the observed possible linewidth and the higher the resolution of the experiment.
