Determination of the electric field gradient asymmetry from 2D nutation NQR spectra of 75As nuclei in oriented samples of As2Se3 semiconductor

The method of two-dimensional nutation nuclear quadrupole resonance in time domain is used to study the chalcogenide semiconductor As(2)Se(3). In this system, the nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) resonance line width is as large as 10 MHz; therefore, the radiofrequency field produced by a pulsed N...

Description
Summary:The method of two-dimensional nutation nuclear quadrupole resonance in time domain is used to study the chalcogenide semiconductor As(2)Se(3). In this system, the nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) resonance line width is as large as 10 MHz; therefore, the radiofrequency field produced by a pulsed NQR spectrometer can excite only a portion of the nuclear spins. The proposed method relies on polarizing the melted glass specimen in a strong magnetic field so that orientational disorder is partially removed. After hardening the sample is placed in a spectrometer r.f. coil in such a way that that the axes of sample polarization and r.f. coil coincide. We demonstrate the application of this method to determine eta in glassy As(2)Se(3).
