Abstract

Unilateral nuclear magnetic resonance (UNMR) spectrometers have been applied in a variety of fields such as petrochemistry, materials science, and process control(1). In UNMR measurements the sample is placed outside of the UNMR sensor and the signal intensity is reduced almost exponentially as the sample-to-sensor distances increases. To expand the detection limits of remote UNMR sensors, wireless inductive coupling was proposed and tested. This strategy was proved to reduce signal attenuation due to sample detachment from sensor, resulting in an increase in detection distance by one order of magnitude (i.e., from few millimeters to few centimeters). This novel approach broadens the potential applications of UNMR sensors and opens new opportunities in several areas, from chemical to biomedical applications. (AU)
