ABSTRACT:
NMR coils are formed from transmission line comprising a tuned LC circuit determined substantially from the distributed capacitance and inductance of the transmission line operated in common mode. Introduction of gaps staggered between opposite conductors of 2-conductor transmission line contribute a desired distributed capacitance with reduced effective inductance to sustain resonant behavior at higher frequency than achievable with conventionally tuned coils and with relaxation of dimensional constraints as the resonant half wavelength approaches coil dimensions.
