Abstract
We investigate the possibility of a low-power rf-irradiation approach to heteronuclear spin decoupling in solid-state NMR under high-frequency magic-angle sample spinning. Decoupling is achieved by applying an rf-field with an amplitude corresponding to a precession frequency much lower than the spinning frequency. This leads to a reversal of the averaging processes compared to normal high-power continuous-wave decoupling. Such an approach becomes increasingly interesting with increasing MAS spinning frequency. In rigid solids, low-power decoupling becomes competitive above about 40 kHz MAS frequency.
