If the field gradient has no axial symmetry, then a more complicated expression is found, involving an asymmetry parameter which is often moderate. In particular, the study of this parameter has been useful for the determination of resonance structures and for the understanding of the bonding in solid iodine. The contribution of each of the molecular electrons to q is given by a relation of the form...

While the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique has widely been used to study diffusion processes of normal liquids, solids, or colloidal systems, there are only a few applications to molten salts. The spin echo self-diffusion method with pulsed field gradients was applied to molten salts by Herdlicka et al. "" There is no need to set up or maintain a concentration gradient.

All experiments were performed in a 1.9-T horizontal bore magnet (Oxford Instruments, Oxford, UK) with a dear bore diameter of 31 cm. Magnetic field gradients were produced by a 12-cm id water-cooled gradient set (Resonance Research, Billerica, MA, USA), capable of a maximum output of 300 mT m-1, and were driven by Techron 7700 amplifiers (Techron Inc., Elkhart, IN, USA). Rf excitation was accomplished using either a quadrature driven birdcage coil (Morris Instruments, Ottawa, ON, Canada), or an 8-tum laboratory-built solenoid coil, driven by an ENI LPI-10 1000 W amplifier or a Matec Model 525 class-C amplifier.

A wide variety of ID and wD NMR techniques are available. In many applications of ID NMR spectroscopy, the modification of the spin Hamiltonian plays an essential role. Standard techniques are double resonance for spin decoupling, multipulse techniques, pulsed-field gradients, selective pulsing, sample spinning, etc. Manipulation of the Hamiltonian requires an external perturbation of the system, which may either be time-independent or time-dependent. Time-independent... 

Pulsed field gradient NMR has become a standard method for measurement of diffusion rates. Stilbs [272] and others have exploited in particular the FT version for the study of mixtures. An added advantage of PFG-NMR is that it can be employed to simplify complex NMR spectra. This simplification is achieved by attenuation of resonances based on the differential diffusion properties of components present in the mixture.
