We propose a new mechanism for dynamic nuclear polarization called Resonant Mixing (RM). It arises from the evolution of the density matrix for a simple electron-nucleus coupled spin pair subject to weak microwave irradiation, similar to the solid effect. However, unlike the solid effect, RM is optimal when the microwave field is on-resonance and involves the mixing of states by the microwave field together with the electron-nuclear coupling. We argue that this mechanism is responsible for the observed dispersive-shaped DNP field profile for trityl samples near the electron paramagnetic resonance center.
We propose a mechanism for dynamic nuclear polarizationthat isdifferent from the well-known Overhauser effect, solid effect, crosseffect, and thermal mixing processes. We term it ResonantMixing (RM), and we show that it arises from the evolutionof the density matrix for a simple electron-nucleus coupledspin pair subject to weak microwave irradiation, the same interactionsas the solid effect. However, the SE is optimal when the microwavefield is off-resonance, whereas RM is optimal when the microwave fieldis on-resonance and involves the mixing of states by the microwavefield together with the electron-nuclear coupling. Finally,we argue that this mechanism is responsible for the observed dispersive-shapedDNP field profile for trityl samples near the electron paramagneticresonance center.
