What is NMR Spectroscopy?
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is an analytical chemistry technology, for determining the contents or purity of a sample material. It can even be used to analyze the structure of molecular. In the past five decades, NMR spectroscopy has become a superior technology, in the analysis of organic compounds. And NMR had been used by the scientists in the large industry or pharmaceutical companies for many years.
Compare to other spectral analysis methods, NMR spectroscopy is the only one, which is able to analyze and interpreter the entire spectral range and determine the composition of molecular. Although NMR spectroscopy need more amount of samples than mass spectroscopy, however, NMR is a non-destructive testing method. By the modern NMR instrument, it takes less than a milligram of sample material, which is enough for getting good enough data for analysis.
NMR Spectrometer is a device, which is designed based on NMR spectroscopy technology. The main structure of a NMR spectrometer consists of two parts: one is the magnetic field; the other is the probe, which is placed in a strong magnetic field center. In addition to the coil inside the probe, it also has a sample chamber in which the sample can be placed from the other side of the probe.
