Microcoil High-Resolution Magic Angle Spinning NMR Spectroscopy

Abstract: We present a new technique that combines the versatility of magic angle spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy with the superior sensitivity provided by very small detection coils. This opens the way for NMR studies of solid samples with nanoliter volumes. Furthermore, the very strong radio frequency (rf) fields that can be generated by these microcoils facilitate a much broader excitation bandwidth and/or decoupling efficiency.Although solid-state NMR is the method of choice for investig… Show more

“…[14] For slower spinning (< 30 kHz for proteins), high-power rf irradiation is typically applied ( ) while at faster spinning frequencies (> 40 kHz), low-power irradiation becomes attractive ( ) [14,15], although high-power decoupling is still possible if the decoupling frequency is increased proportionally to the spinning frequency which is often possible due to the small diameter of the coil in fast MAS stator assemblies [16]. Nevertheless, lowpower decoupling is certainly preferable because of the lower energy deposition in the sample, allowing for faster scan repetition rates and increased sensitivity per unit time.…”

“…Signals belonging to the glucose protons present a clear multiplicity with measurable J-couplings (see Table 1 and Figure 2 Figure 2 is a marked improvement over that of the currently available approaches to micro-detection with MAS, either using inductively coupled spinning microcoils (MACS) 11,13 or using a static microcoil in a piggy-back MAS approach. 18 Since the microcoil is static in the latter approach, the coil susceptibility is not averaged by the sample spinning. Thus, good shimming can be difficult to achieve in that case and can hinder high 8 resolution acquisitions.…”

“…[2]: a solenoid microcoil is integrated into a double-sided circuit board that is mounted on a regular 2.5 mm Varian MAS pencil stator as shown in Fig. 1c In order to ensure the complete absence of 1 H background signal, capillaries from fused silica with inner and outer diameters of 320 and 400 m, respectively, are used as sample holders.…”

“…In order to maximize the sensitivity of solid-state NMR experiments under these circumstances the use of microcoils (diameters below 1 mm) for excitation and detection is favorable. Two approaches have been presented recently to combine solenoid microcoils and MAS: Firstly, the nanoliter sample container is 'piggy-backed' onto a regular size solid-state NMR rotor and spun inside the microcoil, which is mounted on top of the regular MAS stator [2] and [3]. Secondly, the microcoil is loaded into a regular MAS rotor and inductively coupled to the regular macroscopic NMR detection coil [4].…”
