400 MHz/264GHz Bruker AVANCE III MAS-DNP Spectrometer

The first MAS-DNP instrument in the nation for the study of materials forms a cornerstone of the facility. YieldingBruker AVANCE unrivaled sensitivity, MAS-DNP enables the detection of the most minute quantities of materials and enables the structural characterization of interfacial regions. A 1.3 mm fast-MAS-DNP probe enables for combining the advantages of DNP with those of fast-MAS and 1H-detection.

Probes :

  • 3.2 mm Bruker HXY MAS-DNP probe
  • 1.3 mm Bruker HXY fast-MAS-DNP probe
