Induced Electric Dipoles01:28

Induced Electric Dipoles

4.0K
A permanent electric dipole orients itself along an external electric field. This rotation can be quantified by defining the potential energy because the external torque does work in rotating it. Then, the potential energy is minimum at the parallel configuration and maximum at the antiparallel configuration. While the former is a stable equilibrium, the latter is an unstable equilibrium.
Since the absolute value of potential energy holds no physical meaning, its zero value can be chosen as per...

Potential Due to a Polarized Object

942
A neutral atom consists of a positively charged nucleus surrounded by a negatively charged electron cloud. When placed in an external electric field, the external electric force pulls the electrons and nucleus apart, opposite to the intrinsic attraction between the nucleus and the electrons. The opposing forces balance each other with a slight shift between the center of masses of the nucleus and the electron cloud, resulting in a polarized atom. On the other hand, a few molecules, like water,...

Dielectric Polarization in a Capacitor

5.4K
The presence of a dielectric medium in a capacitor not only changes the voltage and capacitance but also affects the electric field. In general, dielectrics can be of two types: polar and nonpolar. In a polar dielectric, the positive and negative charges in the molecules are separated by a distance and hence have a permanent dipole moment. In contrast, no such charge separation exists in a nonpolar dielectric, however the nonpolar molecules get polarized in the presence of an external electric...

π Electron Effects on Chemical Shift: Overview

1.5K
An applied magnetic field causes loosely bound π-electrons in organic molecules to circulate, producing a local or induced diamagnetic field over a large spatial volume. As the molecules tumble in solution, the field generated by π-electrons in spherical substituents results in a zero net field. However, the net field generated by π-electrons in non-spherical substituents is not zero. The effect of this induced field depends on the orientation of the molecule with respect to B0,...

Potential Due to a Magnetized Object

922
Magnetic dipoles in magnetic materials are aligned when placed under an external magnetic field. For paramagnets and ferromagnets, dipole alignment occurs in the direction of the magnetic field. However, the dipoles align opposite to the field in the case of diamagnets. This state of magnetic polarization due to the external field is called magnetization. Magnetization is defined as the dipole moment per unit volume. It plays a similar role to polarization in electrostatics.
The vector...

Area of Science:

  • Solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy
  • Surface Science
  • Physical Chemistry

Background:

  • Para-hydrogen induced polarization (PHIP) is a technique that enhances NMR signals by utilizing the spin order of para-hydrogen.
  • Solid-state NMR is crucial for studying materials, including catalysts and surfaces, but often suffers from low sensitivity.
  • Homonuclear dipolar interactions play a role in spin polarization transfer in NMR.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop analytical expressions and numerical simulations for signal enhancement in solid-state PHIP NMR.
  • To investigate the role of homonuclear dipolar interactions and excitation methods (single pulse, spin-echo) in PHIP.
  • To assess the feasibility of achieving significant proton NMR signal enhancement for chemisorbed hydrogen on surfaces.

Main Methods:

  • Development of analytical expressions describing signal enhancement mechanisms in solid-state PHIP.
  • Numerical simulations to validate the analytical models and predict enhancement factors.
  • Consideration of both Adiabatic Longitudinal Transport AND Nuclear DEpolarization (ALTADENA) and Phase Adjusted SHape ANalysis (PASADENA) conditions.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated efficient enhancement of proton NMR signals for hydrogen chemisorbed on surfaces.
  • Predicted enhancement factors of approximately 30-40 under both ALTADENA and PASADENA conditions with typical reaction efficiencies.
  • Analytical expressions and numerical simulations provide a theoretical framework for understanding and optimizing solid-state PHIP.

Conclusions:

  • Solid-state PHIP NMR is a viable technique for significantly boosting proton NMR signals of surface-bound hydrogen.
  • The predicted enhancement factors suggest practical applications, including the development of in-situ flow NMR setups.
  • This method allows for real-time monitoring of adsorption/desorption processes on catalyst surfaces directly within the NMR magnet.
