+3QMAS phase-modulated shifted-antiecho sequence for I = 3/2

Below NMR pulse program describes:

(1) either the phase-modulated shifted-echo for (1D and 2D) +3Q-MAS experiment applied to quadrupolar nuclei with half-integer spin I > 3/2;

(2) or the phase-modulated shifted-antiecho for (1D and 2D) +3Q-MAS experiment applied to quadrupolar nuclei with I = 3/2 (see figure).

The phase cycling for the third pulse and the receiver is shorter than that in the 3-strong pulse sequence. However, there is no harm in applying the phase cycling of the 3-strong pulse sequence when the third pulse is a selective pulse.

In practice, mainly the first application is considered in 2D experiments.

This NMR pulse program is for Bruker Avance spectrometers.

After the Fourier transform with respect to t2, a tau-dependent first-order phase correction is performed to remove the phase modulation due to the shift and a t1-dependent first-order phase correction to perform the shearing transformation.

; 3Q MAS pulse program for nuclei with half-integer quadrupole spin,

; phase-modulated shifted-antiecho for I = 3/2, 
; or phase-modulated shifted-echo for I = 5/2 and higher,

; 3-pulse experiment with full echo acquisition:
; excitation(3Q) - conversion(1Q) - tau - 180sel - acquisition(-1Q),

; 180° selective pulse should be determined first using Hahn-echo,
; this way also be used to check that full echo can be obtained
; from sample of interest.
; If no full echo can be obtained from sample, use mp3qzfil instead,
; then optimise p2 and finally pl, 2 or more iterations for pl and p2
; may be necessary.
