With this award from the Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) program Professor Roberto Gil from Carnegie Mellon University will acquire a console for a 500 MHz Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectrometer. The upgrade would consist of an ultra-fast and fully digital console, three new 500 MHz NMR broadband probes with digital tuning, a pre-cooling and stabilization accessory for ultra-precise temperature control from near ambient conditions down to 0 degrees C, and an automatic sample changer. The proposal is aimed at enhancing research training and education at all levels, especially in areas of study such as characterization of polymers and material chemistry, atom transfer radical polymerization, nucleic acid research and technology, and organic, inorganic and bioinorganic and biorganic chemistry as well as atmospheric and development of NMR methodologies, studies of small organic molecules in anisotropic media and molecular biosensors.Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is one of the most powerful tools available to chemists for the elucidation of the structure of molecules. It is used to identify unknown substances, to characterize specific arrangements of atoms within molecules, and to study the dynamics of interactions between molecules in solution. Access to state-of-the-art NMR spectrometers is essential to chemists who are carrying out frontier research. The results from these NMR studies will have an impact in synthetic organic/inorganic chemistry, materials chemistry and biochemistry. This instrument will be an integral part of teaching as well as research.

有了这个来自主要研究仪器（MRI）计划的奖项，卡内基梅隆大学的Roberto Gil教授将获得500 MHz核磁共振（NMR）光谱仪的控制台。升级将包括一个超快速和全数字控制台，三个新的500 MHz NMR宽带探头，数字调谐，预冷却和稳定附件，用于从接近环境条件到0摄氏度的超精确温度控制，以及自动样品更换器。该提案旨在加强各级的研究培训和教育，特别是在聚合物和材料化学的表征、原子转移自由基聚合、核酸研究和技术、有机、无机和生物无机和生物有机化学以及大气和核磁共振方法的发展等研究领域，在各向异性介质中有机小分子的研究和分子生物传感器。核磁共振（NMR）光谱是化学家用来阐明分子结构的最有力的工具之一。它用于识别未知物质，表征分子内原子的特定排列，并研究溶液中分子之间相互作用的动力学。对于从事前沿研究的化学家来说，使用最先进的NMR光谱仪是必不可少的。这些NMR研究的结果将对合成有机/无机化学、材料化学和生物化学产生影响。该仪器将成为教学和研究的一个组成部分。
