We have measured the time evolution of the cross-polarization processes between the proton spins of a naphthalene host crystal and the photo-excited triplet electron spins of pentacene guest molecules in a pulsed DNP experiment. The observed oscillatory behaviour is explained as arising from dominan

โฆ Synopsis
A new dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) technique utilizing high frequency, pulsed microwaves is described and demonstrated with observation of an Overhauser enhanced, "C magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum of a powdered sample of the organic conductor, fluoranthenyl hexafluorophosphate ( (FA)*PF,). The spectrum was obtained at room temperature in a 5 T magnetic field, where the conduction electron spin resonance frequency is 140 GHz. A simple theory that accounts for the salient aspects of this pulsed DNP technique is presented. In systems where Overhauser mechanisms dominate the DNP, this new pulsed method can produce enhancements which are comparable to or greater than those obtained with conventional cw irradiation techniques, with lower average microwaves powers.

EPR irradiation by a train of inverting pulses has potential advantages over continuous-wave EPR irradiation in DNP applications; however, it has previously been used only at high field (5 T).
