Lumata, L., M.E. Merritt, and Z. Kovacs, Influence of deuteration in the glassing matrix on 13C dynamic nuclear polarization. Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2013. 15(19): p. 7032-7035.
Replacement of protons by deuterons in the glassing solvents led to 2-3-fold improvement of the (13)C dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) solid-state NMR signal for samples doped with large electron spin resonance (ESR) linewidth free radicals galvinoxyl, DPPH, and 4-oxo-TEMPO. Meanwhile, the reverse effect is observed for (13)C DNP using small ESR linewidth free radicals BDPA and trityl OX063.

Solid state nuclear magnetic resonance with magic-angle spinning and dynamic nuclear polarization below 25K
Solid state nuclear magnetic resonance with magic-angle spinning and dynamic nuclear polarization below 25K
January 2013
Publication year: 2013
Source:Journal of Magnetic Resonance, Volume 226</br>
</br>
We describe an apparatus for solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) with dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) and magic-angle spinning (MAS) at 20–25K and 9.4Tesla. The MAS NMR probe uses helium to cool the sample space and nitrogen gas for MAS drive and bearings, as described earlier , but also includes a corrugated waveguide for transmission of microwaves from...

We describe the design and implementation of a novel tunable 250 GHz gyrotron oscillator with >10 W output power over most of a 3 GHz band and >35 W peak power. The tuning bandwidth and power are sufficient to generate a >1 MHz nutation frequency across the entire nitroxide EPR lineshape for cross effect DNP, as well as to...

Solution NMR of Polypeptides Hyperpolarized by Dynamic Nuclear Polarization.
Anal Chem. 2011 Jun 7;
Authors: Ragavan M, Chen HY, Sekar G, Hilty C
Hyperpolarization of nuclear spins through techniques such as Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) can greatly increase the signal to noise ratio in NMR measurements, thus eliminating the need for signal averaging. This enables the study of many dynamic processes which would otherwise not be amenable to study by NMR spectroscopy....
