Experiments
Measurements of the spin-lattice relaxation time in the rotating frame (T
l
ρ
) are possible
using the standard XPOLAR1 pulse sequence. Anytime that
pcrho
is set to a non-zero
value, a T
l
ρ
decay is introduced; thus, by setting
pcrho
to an array, T
l
ρ
is measured.
Typical values for
pcrho
would range from 50 to 5000
µ
s.
To analyze a T
l
ρ
experiment for the decay time constant, enter
analyze('expfit','pcrho','t2','list')
In experiments other than T
l
ρ
experiments,
pcrho
should be set to 0.
