This thesis includes elementary introductions to nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) detection and fieldeffect transistors (PET). The construction and operation of the FET-NQR detector, as originally designed by Viswanathan, Viswanathan and Sane and published in Rev. Sci. Instr. 39,472 (1968), is discussed extensively. The thesis also contains a step by step discussion of the construction of an alternate PET-N'QP detector. Although the alternate detector never functioned properly, the information gathered would aid anyone desiring to design and construct a new NQR detector.Ball State UniversityMuncie, IN 47306
