Abstract

Excitation of multiple quantum coherence in dipolar coupled spin systems is usually accomplished with a two-quantum multiple pulse sequence which can be time reversed by means of a 90° phase shift. The application of such an excitation scheme to a spin system in thermal equilibrium excites only even orders of multiple quantum coherence. We demonstrate here time reversible pulse sequences that excite all orders of coherence by creating a pure one-quantum average hamiltonian. We also describe pulse schemes which can be used to create pure one- or two-quantum average hamiltonians with variable scaling between +1 and −1. These excitation schemes are relevant to the study of spin clustering by multiple quantum NMR.
