Title:
INDUCTIVE COUPLING IN MULTIPLE RESONANCE CIRCUITS IN A NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE PROBE AND METHODS OF USE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/159676
Kind Code:
A2
Abstract:
In various embodiments of the invention, inductive coupling can be to a secondary coil rather than a primary coil in order to optimize the topology of the NMR probe. In addition, by coupling to a secondary coil using a detection coil located below the lower insulator the RF homogeneity and signal to noise can be improved together with the NMR probe topology. By effecting inductive coupling to an inductor in a multiple resonance circuit, rather than to the sample inductor parameters associated with the NMR, probe construction can be arranged to increase RF homogeneity and signal to noise, while reducing space utilization constraints. In various embodiments of the invention, the primary mode in a secondary coil can be split into two modes with a resonator with inductive coupling to the secondary coil.
