Abstract
A novel technique involving electrodeposition has been used to prepare an elemental silver specimen wherein radioactive110mAg probe nuclei are confined to a surface layer of approximately 0.1 μm depth. This specimen was then brute force oriented in a field of 8T and the continuous wave (CW) nuclear magnetic resonance on oriented nuclei (NMRON) spectrum showed an integrated destruction of some 58%. Moreover the transient NMRON techniques of single and modulated adiabatic passage were successfully applied, resulting in a determination of the electric quadrupole interaction strength at the110mAg site in polycrystalline silver of P/h=+0.74(5)kHz with a FWHM of ΔP/h=0.75(8)kHz. The resulting mode electric field gradient is Vzz=+1.87(23)×1018Vm−1. Analysis of the single passage data provides an estimate for the nuclear spin lattice relaxation constant in silver at 8T of Ck=1.6(3)s.K.
