Publisher's Synopsis
In the course of the last two decades, nuclear magnetic resonance has undergone a profound renaissance. Slow-passage spectroscopy techniques have largely become obsolete, and more versatile pulse techniques have begun to dominate the NMR scene. The rediscovery of the time domain has revived interest and stimulated creativity for new methodological developments. A surprising diversity of novel techniques and ingenious tricks have been invented which have radically changed the scope of NMR spectroscopy. This book provides a unified view of modern NMR spectroscopy, covering basic principles and techniques for the study of solutions and solids. The emphasis is on methods of one- and two-dimensional spectroscopy, and the material is presented in a mathematical framework with a large number of illustrations. The authors are from the ETH Zurich - one of the world's leading institutions in advanced NMR methods. This laboratory has played a key role in the development of Fourier spectroscopy, two-dimensional spectroscopy, and Fourier transform NMR imaging.
