Multiple-time correlation functions from spin-3/2 solid-state NMR spectroscopy

Abstract

Stimulated echo spectroscopy of nonselectively excitable I = 3/2 nuclei offers new perspectives for the investigation of ultraslow motions predominantly in inorganic solids and solid-like materials. Conditions for the generation of pure, quadrupole modulated multipolar spin orders and for the detection of two- and four-time correlation functions are discussed. The case of spins I > 3/2 is also briefly considered.
