A quasi-optical and corrugated waveguide microwave transmission system for simultaneous dynamic nuclear polarization NMR on two separate 14.1 T spectrometers #DNPNMR

February 21, 2018 - Gyrotrons typically generate much more microwave power than needed in a DNP-NMR experiment. This article describes a very nice way how to share the microwave power generated by a single gyrotron between two NMR experiments.

Magic angle spinning NMR below 6 K with a computational fluid dynamics analysis of fluid flow and temperature gradients

January 17, 2018 - This article is not specifically about DNP spectroscopy. However, magic angle spinning at 6K is definitely of interest to DNP, especially when using low-power, solid-state microwave sources.

Instrumentation for cryogenic magic angle spinning dynamic nuclear polarization using 90L of liquid nitrogen per day #DNPNMR

December 20, 2017 - Albert, B.J., et al., Instrumentation for cryogenic magic angle spinning dynamic nuclear polarization using 90L of liquid nitrogen per day.

Uniform field loop-gap resonator and rectangular TEU02 for aqueous sample EPR at 94GHz

December 15, 2017 - Sidabras, J.W., et al., Uniform field loop-gap resonator and rectangular TEU02 for aqueous sample EPR at 94GHz.

A sub-Kelvin cryogen-free EPR system

December 6, 2017 - This article has nothing to do with DNP. However, the article nicely describes an impressive piece of isntrumentation to reach very low temperatures.
