NMR of 129Xe and 13C or 31P - Construction of a UHV Compatible Double Resonance Probe — •Lars Kraft, Alexander Potzuweit, Anuschka Schaffner, and Heinz Jänsch — FB Physik, Philipps Universität Marburg, 35032 Marburg
The goal of the current project is the investigation of internal atomic layers by NMR techniques. As conventional NMR is by far not sensitive enough to address few layers of semiconductor material grown on a substrate, the sensitivity must be enhanced by 3 to 5 orders of magnitude. This can be achieved by dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP), i.e. the transfer of polarization from a hyperpolarized 129Xe film to possible probe nuclei like 31P or 13C.
Here we describe the technical development of an NMR probe simultaneously resonant to two different kinds of nuclei in an UHV environment which is necessary for DNP. The idea is to extend the existing probe by coupling a second circuit that provides the additional resonance frequency leaving the present UHV setup unchanged. The main task is to match the signal and power transmission between the probe and the spectrometer.
The DNP process is most efficient at close contact. Therefore a 13C graphene substrate may be a first material investigated. For an internal 31P layer inside a heterostructure the substrate must contain the layer within a few atomic distances from the surface.
