Abstract

Using spin-lattice relaxation weighted stimulated-echo spectroscopy, we report evidence for a correlation of the primary and secondary relaxation times. The experiments are performed using deuteron nuclear magnetic resonance somewhat above the calorimetric glass-transition of ortho-terphenyl, D-sorbitol, and cresolphthalein-dimethylether. The data analysis is based on the procedure outlined in the accompanying theoretical paper [B. Geil, G. Diezemann, and R. Böhmer, Phys. Rev. E 74, 041504 (2006)]. Direct experimental evidence for a modified spin-lattice relaxation is obtained from measurements on a methyl deuterated acetyl salicylic acid glass. The limitations of the present experimental method are discussed.
