Diffusion in solids, which requires the presence of crystal defects or disorder, has both microscopic and macroscopic aspects. Nuclear magnetic resonance techniques provide access to microscopic diffusion parameters like atomic jump rates and activation energies as well as to the tracer diffusion coefficient for macroscopic transport.

The use of variable temperature 13 C solid-state MAS NMR and GIPAW DFT calculations to explore the dynamics of diethylcarbamazine citrate [PDF]
Experimental 13C solid‐state magic‐angle spinning (MAS) NMR as well as DFT (gauge‐including projector augmented wave) GIPAW calculations were used to probe disorder and local mobility in diethylcarbamazine citrate, (DEC)+(citrate)‐.

Composite Dipolar Recoupling: Anisotropy Compensated Coherence Transfer in Solid-State NMR [PDF]
The efficiency of dipole-dipole coupling driven coherence transfer experiments in solid-state NMR spectroscopy of powder samples is limited by dispersion of the orientation of the internuclear vectors relative to the external magnetic field.

NMR shieldings from density functional perturbation theory: GIPAW versus all-electron calculations [PDF]
We present a benchmark of the density functional linear response calculation of NMR shieldings within the Gauge-Including Projector-Augmented-Wave method against all-electron Augmented-Plane-Wave$+$local-orbital and uncontracted Gaussian basis set ...

Effects of radial radio-frequency field inhomogeneity on MAS solid-state NMR experiments [PDF]
Radio-frequency field inhomogeneity is one of the most common imperfections in NMR experiments. They can lead to imperfect flip angles of applied radio-frequency (rf) pulses or to a mismatch of resonance conditions, resulting in artefacts or degraded ...

Multi-spin dynamics of the solid-state NMR Free Induction Decay [PDF]
We present a new experimental investigation of the NMR free induction decay (FID) in a lattice of spin-1/2 nuclei in a strong Zeeman field. Following a pi/2 pulse, evolution under the secular dipolar Hamiltonian preserves coherence number in the Zeeman ...

Dynamic nuclear polarization enhanced solid-state NMR studies of surface modification of gamma-alumina [PDF]
Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) gives large (>100-fold) signal enhancements in solid-state NMR spectra via the transfer of spin polarization from unpaired electrons from radicals implanted in the sample.
