SPIN DECOUPLER<br />

The spin decoupler which is shown in the figure employs a<br />

phase detector quite similar to that used in the Varian integrator 1.<br />

(i) LeRoy F. Johnson, "Operation of an NMR Integrator System," is<br />

"NMR and EPR Spectroscopy," by Varian Staff and Consultants,<br />

Pergamon Press, 185 (1960).<br />

The IN216 diodes used in the phase detector are a matched<br />

pair and are imbedded in a copper block to maintain them at a constant<br />

temperature. Ten turn pots have also been used in the phase shifter<br />

and audio amplitude section so as to give a little better control in<br />

these settings. Also, 0.022 ~f capacitors have been placed at the<br />

output to the sweep coils to attenuate the modulation. A switch, not<br />

shown in the diagram, has been added so that these capacitors can be<br />

shorted so the full output of the audio amplifier can be placed on the<br />

sweep coils.
