Chemical Shift: Internal References and Solvent Effects

1.5K
In an NMR sample, precise measurement of the absolute absorption frequencies of nuclei is difficult. A standard internal reference compound is added, and the frequency difference between the reference signal and sample signals is measured.
The internal reference compound generally used in NMR spectroscopy is tetramethylsilane (TMS). TMS is preferred because it is chemically inert, soluble in NMR solvents, and easily removable. Also, the highly shielded methyl protons in TMS yield an intense...

AES is a powerful analytical technique, especially effective when used with plasma sources, producing abundant spectra in characteristic emission lines. The Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP), in particular, yields superior quantitative analytical data due to its high stability, low noise, low background, and minimal interferences under optimal experimental conditions. However, newer air-operated microwave sources are emerging as promising alternatives that could be more cost-effective than...

UV–Vis Spectrometers

The absorbance of UV and visible (UV–visible) radiations is measured using a UV–visible spectrophotometer. Deuterium lamps, which emit UV radiation, and tungsten lamps, which produce radiation in the visible region, are used as light sources in UV–visible spectrophotometers. A monochromator or prism is used for diffraction grating, i.e., to split the incoming radiation into different wavelengths. A system of slits is used to focus the desired wavelength on the sample cell.

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Science
  • Radiation Dosimetry

Background:

  • The Schauinsland inter-calibration facility (INTERCAL) was established for long-term comparison experiments.
  • Two reference probes, characterized by European Radiation Dosimetry WG3, were installed at INTERCAL.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To enable long-term comparison experiments for 20 different dose rate probes from various networks.
  • To investigate the long-term behavior of dose rate probes and spectrometry systems under environmental conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Installation of two characterized reference probes at the INTERCAL facility.
  • Deployment of additional instrumentation for measuring air activity, nuclide-specific dose rates, and environmental parameters (air pressure, temperature, precipitation, soil moisture).
  • Conducting two exposure experiments in April 2009 and May 2012.

Main Results:

  • Established a facility for inter-calibration of dose rate probes.
  • Collected data on environmental parameters alongside radiation measurements.
  • Provided a framework for long-term studies of radiation detection equipment.

Conclusions:

  • The INTERCAL facility is suitable for long-term inter-calibration experiments.
  • Environmental factors can influence dose rate probe performance.
  • The platform supports research into radiation detection under real-world conditions.
