Transient effects in π-pulse sequences in MAS solid-state NMR.
Journal of Magnetic Resonance 2018 Februrary
Dipolar recoupling techniques that use isolated rotor-synchronized π pulses are commonly used in solid-state NMR spectroscopy to gain insight into the structure of biological molecules. These sequences excel through their simplicity, stability towards radio-frequency (rf) inhomogeneity, and low rf requirements. For a theoretical understanding of such sequences, we present a Floquet treatment based on an interaction-frame transformation including the chemical-shift offset dependence. This approach is applied to the homonuclear dipolar-recoupling sequence Radio-Frequency Driven Recoupling (RFDR) and the heteronuclear recoupling sequence Rotational Echo Double Resonance (REDOR). Based on the Floquet approach, we show the influence of effective fields caused by pulse transients and discuss the advantages of pulse-transient compensation. We demonstrate experimentally that the transfer efficiency for homonuclear recoupling can be doubled in some cases in model compounds as well as in simple peptides if pulse-transient compensation is applied to the π pulses. Additionally, we discuss the influence of various phase cycles on the recoupling efficiency in order to reduce the magnitude of effective fields. Based on the findings from RFDR, we are able to explain why the REDOR sequence does not suffer in the recoupling efficiency despite the presence of effective fields.
