Two-pulse nutation echoes generated by gradients of the radiofrequency amplitude and of the main magnetic field.
A two-pulse NMR nutation spectroscopy scheme is suggested that leads to a new type of spin echoes. The amplitude of the radiofrequency (RF) pulses as well as the external magnetic field are assumed to be subject to gradients G(1) and G(0), respectively, in the same but otherwise arbitrary direction. Multiple echoes are predicted and observed at times k(G(1)/G(0))tau(1) and tau -/+ k(G(1)/G(0))tau(1) (k = 1, 2, 3, ...) after the second RF pulse, where tau(1) represents the radiofrequency pulse duration, and tau is the spacing of the RF pulses. Based on these echoes, a method for diffusion measurements is proposed that simultaneously provides the spin-lattice relaxation time and the self-diffusion coefficient.
