Single Chip Dynamic Nuclear Polarization Microsystems
During the 78th session of the Global NMR Discussion Meetings held on January 16st, 2024 via Zoom, Dr. Nergiz Sahin Solmaz from EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland, gave a talk on the topic "Single Chip Dynamic Nuclear Polarization Microsystems". The recording serves as a tutorial.
Abstract:
Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) is one of the most powerful and versatile hyperpolarization methods to enhance nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals. A major drawback of DNP is the cost and complexity of the required microwave hardware, especially at high magnetic fields and low temperatures. To overcome this drawback and with the focus on the study of nanoliter and subnanoliter samples, I will present single chip DNP microsystems where the microwave excitation and detection are performed locally on chip without the need of external microwave generators and transmission lines.
