Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) is a key tool in solid-state physics. The spectrum measurements allow the determination of intrinsic, site-dependent susceptibility, and the relaxation of the polarized nucleus provides information about the dynamics of materials. We have recently been awarded an R’EQUIP grant from the Swiss National Science Foundation to set up an advanced NMR laboratory, where the key strengths of NMR will be amplified by ultra-low temperatures as well as high and sweepable magnetic fields. The lab will be built in the Quantum Matter and Materials Center (QMMC), currently under construction on our west campus.
