X-Pulse
X-Pulse is a high-resolution benchtop NMR
spectrometer. Using a high stability 60MHz (1.4T)
permanent magnet X-Pulse enables users to
collect NMR data without the need for liquid
cryogens or specialist facilities. X-Pulse has been
optimized with unique shimming technology to
provide resolution of better than 0.35Hz. For
convenience, X-Pulse uses standard 5mm NMR
tubes requiring only 300µL of sample.
X-Pulse is the first benchtop NMR system to
have a broadband X-Nuclei channel allowing
users to select nuclei from 29Si to 31P.
