Characterization of phosphorus clusters via multiple quantum solid state NMR

Lokeswara Rao Potnuru – @lokeswarnmr

Nonclassical growth pathways are generally confined to analysis via microscopy and X-Ray techniques due to prenucleation cluster size and stability constraints. Herein, we describe a novel technique for analyzing prenucleation cluster formation via 31P NMR spin counting of vitrified samples, which allows for atomic systems to be analyzed at varying time points.
