Abstract:
The characteristics of the modified-triggered photocounting rate of photoelectric pulses, counted up and down at a certain frequency after a pulse has occurred, were studied. It was found that the counting rate is equal to the magnitude of photocurrent passed through a narrowband filter whose middle frequency is the up-down counting rate. From this result, a new spectroscopic method is proposed employing the photocounting technique.

01:12Double Resonance Techniques: Overview
Double resonance techniques in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy involve the simultaneous application of two different frequencies or radiofrequency pulses to manipulate and observe two distinct nuclear spins. One important application of double resonance is spin decoupling, which selectively suppresses coupling with one type of nucleus while observing the NMR signal from another nucleus, simplifying the spectrum and enhancing resolution.

01:04¹³C NMR: ¹H–¹³C Decoupling
The probability of having two carbon-13 atoms next to each other is negligible because of the low natural abundance of carbon-13. Consequently, peak splitting due to carbon-carbon spin-spin coupling is not observed in spectra. However, protons up to three sigma bonds away split the carbon signal according to the n+1 rule, resulting in complicated spectra.
