Abstract
- Abstract: Three different techniques (adiabatic passage Hartman-Hahn cross-polarization, optimal control designed pulses, and EXPORT) are compared for transferring 15N magnetization to 13C in solid-state NMR experiments under magic-angle-spinning conditions. We demonstrate that, in comparison to adiabatic passage Hartman-Hahn cross-polarization, optimal control transfer pulses achieve similar or better transfer efficiencies for uniformly-13C,15N labeled samples and are generally superior for samples with non-uniform labeling schemes (such as 1,3- and 2-13C glycerol labeling). In addition, the optimal control pulses typically use substantially lower average RF field strengths and are more robust with respect to experimental variation and RF inhomogeneity. Consequently, they are better suited for demanding samples. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
