An analytical solution is given for amplitudes and phases of adiabatic decoupling sidebands as a function of spin inversion time . Since all the adiabatic decoupling phases (t, ) refocus at two periods (2T) of the decoupling pulse, the sidebands are located at n/2T rather than at n/T as observed in

β¦ Synopsis
RF pulse sequences applied to IS spin systems may produce decoupling scheme (4), recently introduced as a method for substantial transverse antiphase S magnetization coupled to anticanceling ordinary sidebands resulting from in-phase magnephase I magnetization, just prior to detection of the S signal, for tization, is also a signal-averaging technique that has been samples containing a range of J coupling constants, or when pulse demonstrated to be effective on or near resonance and might sequence delays are misset from ideal values. This magnetization be more generally applicable. For now, we will emphasize is generally considered to be unobservable. Adiabatic decoupling methods that eliminate coherence sidebands in a single tranon the I spins during signal detection efficiently converts this magsient over bandwidths appropriate to modern broadband denetization to observable S signal in the form of sidebands which we coupling.
