ABSTRACT:
A single-tuned rf-gradient saddle coil is used for an internal NMR lock in a high-field NMR probe. The non-dipolar lock coil geometry is chosen such that its filling factor and Q are maximized subject to the constraint that its coupling coefficient to two orthogonal saddle coils is zero. Various quadrupolar and octopolar rf coils are disclosed for use in NMR probes having three or four sample coils for multi-nuclear triple resonance or homonuclear decoupling.
