Abstract
Oscillatory free-induction decay (FID) theoretically predicted by Schenzle, Wong, and Brewer was observed by using NMR in an inhomogeneously broadened proton system. Oscillatory behaviors were also observed, in the same system, in two-pulse echoes generated by large-area pulses. These phenomena appear in a highly inhomogeneous-broadened atomic or spin two-level system driven by resonant laser or rf pulses with areas equal to or larger than $2\ensuremath{\pi}$. Detailed studies were made for spin-locked and notched echoes. Behaviors of the oscillatory FID and the oscillatory echoes were theoretically examined by solving the Bloch equations and numerically integrating the solution over the inhomogeneous broadening. Excellent agreement between experiment and theory was obtained. Analytic expressions for the shapes of the locked- and notched-type echoes are obtained, which interpret the main characteristics of these echoes, when the infinite linewidth of the inhomogeneous broadening and the $\ensuremath{\delta}$-function-type excitation for one of the pulses are assumed.
