We report our recent efforts directed at improving high-field dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) experiments. We investigated a series of thiourea nitroxide radicals and the associated DNP enhancements ranging from ?=25 to 82, which demonstrate the impact of molecular structure on performance. We directly polarized low-gamma nuclei, including 13C, 2H, and 17O, by the cross effect mechanism using trityl radicals as a polarization agent. We discuss a variety of sample preparation techniques for DNP with emphasis on the benefits of methods that do not use a glass-forming cryoprotecting matrix. Lastly, we describe a corrugated waveguide for use in a 700 MHz/460 GHz DNP system that improves microwave delivery and increases enhancements up to 50 %.

? High field Dynamic Nuclear Polarization spectrometers for liquid samples have been constructed, working at 7, 9.2 and 14 T, respectively. ? The field dependence of the Overhauser DNP efficiency has been measured experimentally for the first time up to a field of 9.2 T and compared with experimental results from...
