The Development of Dipole Recoupling Methods and The Characterization of Molecularly Doped Polymers

在该奖项中，西弗吉尼亚大学的Terry W. Gullion教授和他的博士后和研究生同事将开发固态核磁共振方法（REAPDOR）来测量偶极耦合自旋对之间的偶极耦合：S=1/2和I=3/ 2,7 /2。Gullion教授的研究结果有望引起广泛的兴趣，因为它们将使科学家能够确定更多元素的核间距离数据。这些方法将对其他结构测定方法不适用的材料（肽、蛋白质、非晶聚合物和无机玻璃）的结构表征有用。除了所支持的研究的更广泛的科学和技术影响外，Gullion教授将继续培训现代磁共振方法发展的年轻科学家。

In this award, funded by the Experimental Physical Chemistry Program of the Chemistry Division, Prof. Terry W. Gullion of the University of West Virginia, and his post-doctoral and graduate student colleagues will develop solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance methods (REAPDOR) to measure the dipolar coupling between dipolar -coupled spin pairs: S=1/2 and I=3/2, 7/2. The results from Prof. Gullion's research are expected to be of broad interest, as they will allow scientists to determine internuclear distance data for a much larger group of elements. These methods will be useful for structural characterization of materials (peptides, proteins, amorphous polymers and inorganic glasses) for which other methods of structure determination are not applicable.Besides the broader scientific and technological impacts of the research being supported, Prof. Gullion will continue to train young scientists in modern magnetic resonance methods development.
