| الوصف: | Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) involves a polarization transfer from unpaired electrons to hyperfine coupled nuclei and can increase the sensitivity of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals by several orders of magnitude. The hyperfine coupling is considered to suppress nuclear dipolar flip-flop transitions, hindering the transport of nuclear hyperpolarization into the bulk (''spin-diffusion barrier''). Possible polarization-transfer pathways leading to DNP and subsequent spin diffusion between hypershifted nuclei in a two-electron two-nucleus four-spin system are investigated. The Schrieffer-Wolff transformation is applied to characterize transitions that are only possible as second-order effects. An energy-conserving electron-nuclear four-spin flip-flop is identified, which combines an electron dipolar with a nuclear dipolar flip-flop process, describing spin diffusion close to electrons. The relevance of this process is supported by two-compartment model fits of HypRes-on experimental data. This suggests that all nuclear spins can contribute to the hyperpolarization of the bulk and the concept of a spin-diffusion barrier has to be reconsidered for samples with significant electron and nuclear dipolar couplings. |
