S. Eroglu et al., Estimate of losses and signal-to-noise ratio in, planar inductive micro-coil detectors used for NMR, IEEE MAGNET, 37(4), 2001, pp. 2787-2789
A method for estimating high frequency resistance of induction micro-coils
is presented. This method accounts for the so-called proximity effect arisi
ng due to the interaction between the turns of the coil. This method is als
o used in calculating signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of induction micro-coils
used as detectors of NMR signals. It is shown that the proximity effect pla
ys an essential role in determining the optimum geometrical parameters of t
he micro-coil NMR detectors.
