Contrast in solid-state NMR imaging, part I: principles

Abstract

Contrast is the central feature that makes NMR imaging of interest for materials applications. The principles of contrast in NMR imaging of solids are introduced and illustrated, based on the use of magnetization filters for preparation of thermodynamic nonequilibrium magnetization. ©1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Concepts Magn Reson 10: 19–31, 1998
