ABSTRACT:
A high resolution NMR probe having two or more resonators, an inner resonator which is closely coupled to a sample and is used to stimulate and receive a response from one nuclear species, and an outer resonator to induce transitions in another nuclear species, wherein the resonators may be provided with cooling capability and may be made of superconducting material, and wherein the inner resonator may be a saddle coil or a birdcage coil with capability of being tuned, and wherein the outer resonator may be one or more spiral wound saddle coil.
