Anisotropy-correlated spectroscopy of quadrupolar nuclei

The two-dimensional anisotropy-correlated NMR (2DAC) spectra of half-integer quadrupolar nuclei may be recorded by using an exchange sequence in conjunction with magic angle spinning (MAS) during evolution and detection, and off-MAS during mixing. Application of this experiment to boron oxides is described, in addition to an analysis of the spin diffusion rates in such materials.
