R. Born et al., 2D P-31 EXCHANGE NMR - A NEW APPROACH FOR A DIRECT PROBING OF THE CONNECTIVITIES OF Q(N) UNITS IN GLASSES, Zeitschrift fur Naturforschung. A, A journal of physical sciences, 50(2-3), 1995, pp. 169-176
Recently, P-31 two-dimensional (2D) NMR has been proposed as a powerfu
l tool for direct investigations of the connectivities between the Q(m
) units in glasses, i.e. the medium-range order. In this paper, the pr
inciples of these experiments and applications to both polycrystalline
Mg2P2O7 and a Na2O-P2O5 glass are demonstrated, including a theoretic
al description and modelling of the polarization transfer between the
two inequivalent phosphorus sites in the magnesium pyrophosphate.
