Patent ID: 10048335

Abstract:
A specially shaped coil assembly for accurate adjustment of the magic angle is provided to permit accurate adjustment of an angle made between the direction of a static magnetic field and the axis of sample spinning without impairing the resolution of NMR signals. The sample is placed within the external static magnetic field B0. The coil assembly is for use in a solid-state NMR apparatus that performs NMR detection while spinning the sample about an axis tilted at the magic angle relative to the external static magnetic field B0. The coil assembly comprises a pair of arcuate conductor lines and a pair of straight conductor lines. Each of the arcuate lines has a diameter of 2a. Each of the straight lines has a length of 2L. The diameter 2a and the length 2L are so selected as to satisfy the relationship: 1.91≤2L/2a≤2.15.
