90° RF Pulse and the “Rotating Frame”
Applied Magnetic Field
Precessing proton gives riseto constant vertical field
Will rotating horizontal field generate 100 MHz RF signal?No, because there are many
precessing protons with all possible phases.
Consider a “rotating frame” in which the observer orbits at 100 MHz - protons seem to
stand still as if no applied field.
(just long enough to rotate all nuclear spin axes by 90°).
Fast precession(~100 MHz)
Slow precession
(~0.1 MHz)
Horizontal fields cancel.
Subsequent precession generates100 MHz RF signal in lab frame.
100 MHz RFin lab frame
Until “relaxation”reestablishes equilibrium.
and rotating horizontal field.
Pulse a very weak magnetic field fixed in this rotating frame
A 90° pulse makesspinning nuclei (1H, 13C) “broadcast” a frequency
that reports theirlocal magnetic field.
MRI:locating protons

MRI: find protons in body(e.g. fluid H2O) Bz

Superconducting Solenoidprotons precess at 63 MHz
So there are protons in the body, but where?
How to locate Crickets,if you can’t see them:
Establish a temperature gradientand listen with a stopwatch.

Listen at fixed frequency.Tune Bo to “hear” precession.
In the late 1950s chemistry departments began buying NMR spectrometers with fields homogeneous enough to determine molecular structures from chemical shifts (and spin-spin
splittings). With multi-user equipment, it was a challenge to keep the fields sufficiently homogeneous to obtain sharp lines.
At SUNY-Stony Brook in 1972 physical chemist Paul Lauterbur would take over the departmental machine nightly and destroy the field inhomogeneity.
By establishing gradients in different directions he located two 1 mm tubes of H2O within a 5 mm tube of D2O, and published this “zeugmatogram” in Nature in 1973. 30 years later he shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for inventing MRI.
Do Not Touch These Gradient Knobs!!! or this one!
have put classical structure proof by chemical transformation
(and even IR!) out of business.One Yale “natural products” organic professor, whose research used chemical transformations to puzzle out molecular structures, abandoned organic chemistry to take up fundamental research on quantum theory
(and later became a professional studio photographer).
