摘要
We report an enhancement of proton NMR signals by a factor of 10(6) by cross polarization with hyperpolarized liquid Xe-129 in an ultralow magnetic field of 1 muT. The NMR signals from cyclopentane, acetone, and methanol are detected using a commercial high-T-c SQUID magnetometer with a signal-to-noise ratio of up to 1000 from a single 90degrees tipping pulse. This technique allows a wide range of low-field NMR measurements and is promising for the detection of intermolecular scalar spin-spin couplings. Scalar intermolecular couplings can produce a shift of the average NMR frequency in a hyperpolarized sample even in the presence of rapid chemical exchange.
