Below NMR pulse program describes the cogwheel phase cycling in split-t1 approach for (1D and 2D) +3Q-MAS experiment applied to quadrupolar nuclei with 3/2-spin.

Split-t1 3QMAS sequence and antiecho transfer pathway for a spin I = 3/2

Fig. 1: Split-t1 3QMAS NMR pulse sequence and antiecho transfer pathway for a spin I = 3/2 system.

This NMR pulse program is for Bruker Avance spectrometers.

A pure absorption 2D spectrum is obtained without the shearing transformation.

; cogwheelmq3p

; 3Q MAS pulse program for 3/2-spin nuclei 
; 3-pulse experiment with full echo acquisition: 
; excitation(3Q) - conversion(1Q) - tau - 180° selective - ACQ(-1Q) 
; uses split-t1 mode with the whole echo acquisition 
; uses cogwheel phase cycling
; cog23(0, 3, 4; 14) === cog23(-14, -11, -10; 0) 
; === cog23(9, 12, 13; 0) === cog23(-3, 0, 1; 11)

; for split-t1 set increments as follows:
; set: in10 = in0*7/9,
; or in10 = 0, if no split-t1 is desired

; 180° selective pulse should be determined first using Hahn-echo, 
; this may also be used to check that full echo can be obtained 
; from sample of interest. If no full echo can be obtained from 
; sample, use mq3qzfil instead.
; Then optimise P2 and finally P1, 2 or more iterations for P1 and P2 
; may be needed.

Since the receiver phase ph31 is zero, an offset of FID signal occurs. Set BC drop box to single mode before Fourier transform of the FID signal.

For signal amplitude optimization, use paropt command instead of pop command.
