Transverse dephasing optimized solid-state NMR spectroscopy.
It is shown how coherence lifetimes in solid-state NMR experiments can be controlled. New decoupling schemes are introduced which actively optimize dephasing times, providing increases of up to a factor of 2 with respect to the best existing schemes. The new schemes are implemented in transverse-dephasing-optimized (TDOP) NMR experiments for the disorded solid cellulose, and for a microcrystalline protein, where sensitivity improvements of up to a factor of 5 are obtained.
