Our Dynamically Nuclear Polarized Target can provide greater than 90% proton polarization in a irradiated ammonia target sample in a 5T magnetic field and at around 1K.  The basic operating principle involves leveraging the spin-spin coupling of a free electron in our material to the proton we wish to polarize.  In a magnetic field, the spin-spin coupling results in a hyper-fine splitting as see in the diagram to the right.

Using microwaves of wavelengths corresponding to the energy gaps, transitions can be induced to flip to the spin of the proton along with the spin of the electronAs in the example of the dagram, the (down,down) state can be flipped to the (up,up) state, but by changing the microwave frequency it is also possible to flip the (down,up) state to the (up,down) state, thereby anti-aligning the proton without changing the magnetic field.  Since the relaxation time of the electron at 1K is on the order of milliseconds, whereas that of the proton is tens of minutes, the same electron can be used to polarize many protons.

There are 5 basic ingredients which go into this target: a high magnetic field, a low temperature, a microwave system, an NMR system, and a suitable target material.  We will briefly walk through these 5 building blocks, and what systems are necessary to provide them in the experimental hall.

Training Materials

Training for g2p target operators will consist of a brief online quiz on the topics covered here on the Wiki, followed by a practical course when the target is installed and running in the hall. The primer is also available as a PDF: File:G2p target primer.pdf.

Take the quiz after you've read the above primer closely, and taken a look at the two others as well:
