Optimizing Initial State
An MQMAS spectrum enables us to measure the principal components of the
EFG tensor of a quadrupolar nucleus, but does not offer information about the
orientation of this tensor. With the cross peaks of a spin diffusion spectrum,
this information can be elucidated. However, the sensitivity of a spin diffusion
spectrum of quadrupolar system can be rather low. New techniques are needed
to improve it.
In this work, we present two approaches each of which can help increase the
sensitivity of an MQMAS/STMAS spin diffusion spectrum:

▲Choose the optimal values of recycle delay, the length and

▲ Get the first slice of a series of MQMAS/STMAS-SD spectra
by arraying the position, length and amplitude of the
recoupling pulse. Find the optimal values for the recoupling pulse.
Conclusion The wide applications of MQMAS/STMAS spin
diffusion require higher sensitivity of the cross peaks. The enhancement of cross peaks can be achieved with recoupling approaches and/or optimal initial states.
For recoupling during mixing, a pulse applied at the beginning or end of each rotor period performs better than other cases, but enhancement can always be achieved with the recoupling pulse applied at almost anywhere if recoupling power and length are adjusted properly (depending on sample).
For initial state optimization, it is found that the pulse length of a few rotor period is desired and the pulse power should be appropriately chosen.
