Solid-State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometer for Research on Advanced Catalytic, Porous, and Magnetic Materials

Abstract

The design, synthesis, and characterization of advanced catalytic, porous, and magnetic materials is critical to addressing many scientific challenges relevant to Department of Defense (DoD) missions. Here, we propose to purchase instrumentationa 500 MHz solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometerthat will enable cutting-edge research directed at the development of such materials. The proposed NMR spectrometer will be used for research as well as an instructional tool, and will provide the capability to observe a broad range of nuclei with high sensitivity. This instrumentation will offer critical insight into the structural and chemical factors responsible for different properties in a wide range of materials, spanning a diverse ranges of compositions, length-scales, and properties. The proposed instrumentation will augment research projects that are currently funded by the DoD and will support the research-related education of many young scientists and engineers.
