NMR-Mouse one-sided NMR
The unique, powerful Profile NMR-MOUSE® probe works hand-in-hand with the Kea2 spectrometer.
The Profile NMR-MOUSE is a portable, open NMR sensor equipped with a novel permanent magnet geometry that generates a flat sensitive volume parallel to the scanner surface.
The system can measure
To excite and detect the NMR signal of this volume, a surface RF coil is placed on top of the magnet at a position that defines the maximum penetration into the sample.
As the sensitive slice is repositioned across the object, this unilateral NMR scanner produces one-dimensional profiles of the sample structure with a spatial resolution better than five micrometres.
Profiles showing the structure of a gasoline tank wall and the ingress of gasoline for different exposure times. An interesting application of the profile NMR-MOUSE® is the study of dynamic transport processes happening at the material surface, such as the ingress of solvents into solid materials.
Profile of a multi-x-x-x-layer polymer coating used to protect concrete surfaces from environmental corrosion. In many cases, not only high spatial resolution but also a large penetration depth, is desired. It can be achieved with the PM10, which provides a penetration depth of 10 mm.
The conservation of cultural heritage is a particular field where the use of non-destructive characterisation methods is mandatory considering the uniqueness of the object under study.
Taking advantage of the high spatial resolution achieved with the profile-MOUSE the skin structure can be studied in vivo.
The Profile NMR-MOUSE® is available in a range of models with different frequencies, depth penetration and resolution.
Model | NMR Freq [MHz] | Gradient [T/m] | Max Depth [mm] | Resolution [µm] |
PM 2 | 30 | 35 | 2 | 10 |
PM 5 | 20 | 22 | 5 | 10 |
PM 10 | 13 | 13 | 10 | 30 |
PM 25 | 13 | 8 | 25 | 100 |
An optional high precision lift integrates with the spectrometer and software for rapid automated scanning across the sample.
