Abstract
A method is disclosed for highly sensitive indirect detection of nuclear magnetic resonance of nuclei having a low gyromagnetic ratio using pulse techniques. The method employs a coherent transfer of transverse magnetization from the nuclei of interest to nuclei of high gyromagnetic ratio for which the free induction decay, S (t.sub.2), is observed as a function of the length of the time interval, t.sub.1, between imposition of transverse magnetization upon the nuclei of interest and transfer of magnetization to the observed nuclei. Contribution to the observed resonances not arising from the transferred transverse magnetization is eliminated and the resulting function S (t.sub.1, t.sub.2) is double Fourier transformed to the frequency domain and displayed as a two dimensional plot for resolving the multiplet spectral structure of the spectra of the nuclei having such low gyromagnetic ratio.
