Advancements in Solid-State NMR Spectroscopy for Paramagnetic Materials

Advancements in solid-state NMR spectroscopy are transforming the way paramagnetic materials are analyzed, especially in the context of battery research and advanced energy applications. This application note introduces the Avance Neo-X 200 MHz pNMR system, designed to address the unique challenges of studying paramagnetic solids. By leveraging optimized low-field NMR and fast Magic Angle Spinning (MAS), researchers can achieve enhanced spectral resolution, more straightforward data interpretation, and robust characterization of complex materials. The note features practical workflows and real-world examples, offering valuable guidance for deepening the understanding of local structure, dynamics, and performance in battery components, energy storage systems, and functional materials.
