Large enhancements in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals provided by dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) at low temperatures have the potential to enable inductively-detected 1H magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with isotropic spatial resolution on the order of one micron, especially when low temperatures and DNP are combined with microcoils, three-dimensional (3D) phase encoding of image information, pulsed spin locking during NMR signal detection, and homonuclear dipolar decoupling by Lee-Goldburg (LG) irradiation or similar methods. However, the relatively slow build-up of nuclear magnetization under DNP leads to very long acquisition times for high-resolution 3D images unless the sample volume or field of view (FOV) is restricted. We have therefore developed a method for slice selection in low-temperature, DNP-enhanced MRI that limits the FOV to about 50 ?m in one or more dimensions. This method uses small-amplitude phase modulation of LG irradiation in the presence of a strong magnetic field gradient to invert spin-locked 1H magnetization in the selected slice. Experimental results are reported, including effects of radio-frequency field inhomogeneity, variations in the amplitude of phase modulation, and shaped phase modulation.

[U. of Ottawa NMR Facility Blog] Sample Slice Selection in NMR Spectroscopy
Sample Slice Selection in NMR Spectroscopy
In MRI, field gradients are used routinely for slice selection while imaging a sample. Gradients are also finding applications in high resolution NMR spectroscopy employing fast data collection techniques using parallel data acquisition for multiple slices of the same sample. A good example of this can be found in Carlos' BLOG (and the references therein). The slice selection is accomplished by turning on a linear field gradient across the sample while applying an excitation pulse. While the gradient is on, the frequencies of each of the NMR...
