Solid state NMR has the ability to obtain detailed structural information at the
molecular level in materials. This has led to the development of a large number of high
resolution techniques, some of which utilize multiple pulse methods. The behaviour of
these multiple pulse techniques has, to date, been explained using either relaxation or
spin dynamics. Ultimately, an explanation based on a combination of both dynamics is
required in order to properly understand the underlying mechanism of these techniques.
This work presents an explanation of the experimental behaviour observed for three
multiple pulse domain selection techniques: the DIVAM, Direct DIVAM, and Refocused
DIVAM sequences. This is based on a combination of spin and relaxation dynamics and
is accomplished using both analytical expressions and simulations obtained using a
general simulation program for solid-state NMR spectroscopy (SIMPSON). / xviii, 179 leaves ; 29 cm
