Abstract:
A broadband magnetic resonance (MR) receiver is described herein. The MR receiver can be used to process nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals. The MR receiver includes a transformer that amplifies the MR signals and a preamplifier that receives the MR signals from the transformer. The preamplifier includes a common-drain amplifier stage and a common-source amplifier stage.
Abstract:
A method and system for applying nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) sequences to a substance are described herein. The method includes applying an NMR pulse sequence to the substance using a non-resonant transmitter circuit. The NMR pulse sequence includes a first pulse sequence segment applied at a first frequency to a first shell within the substance and a second pulse sequence segment applied at a second frequency to a second shell. The second pulse sequence segment is initiated before the first shell reaches thermal equilibrium. In some cases, the first pulse sequence segment and the second pulse sequence segment are interposed within each other. Such NMR pulse sequences, with multiple pulse sequence segments, can also be applied to different atomic nuclei.

A magnetic resonance (MR) receiver is described herein. The MR receiver can be used to process nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals. The MR receiver includes a transformer that amplifies the MR signals and a preamplifier that receives the MR signals from the transformer. The preamplifier can include a transimpedance amplifier circuit with an input stage that includes a field effect transistor.
