Static and magic angle spinning 51V NMR spectra of BiVO4 were recorded at three different field strengths
(2.3, 9.4 and 14.1 T) and give evidence of the relative
effects of the quadrupolar interaction and electronic shielding at
the nucleus. The experimental powder spectra were fitted to ascertain
both the magnitude and orientation of chemical shift anisotropy and
electric field gradient tensors. Copyright ©1999 John Wiley
