Abstract:
We introduce a simple strategy to access and readout nuclear singlet order based on the alternate repetition of hard pulses and delays. We demonstrate the general applicability of the method by accessing nuclear singlet order in spin systems characterized by diverse coupling regimes. We show that the method is highly efficient in the strong-coupling and chemical equivalence regimes, and can overcome some limitations of other well-established and more elaborated pulse sequences. A simulation package is provided which allows the determination of pulse sequence parameters.
