World’s First 105mm bore, 900 MHz Nuclear Magnetic Resonance System
Caption:
The world’s first 105mm bore, 900 MHz Nuclear Magnetic Resonance system was successfully commissioned on July 21, 2004 at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL). In operation, the sixteen foot tall, 15-ton magnet sits inside a cryostat, which keeps the superconducting magnetic coils at a temperature of 1.7 degrees Kelvin.
The NHMFL—established by the National Science Foundation in 1990—develops and operates high magnetic field facilities that scientists use for research in physics, biology, bioengineering, chemistry, geochemistry, biochemistry, materials science and engineering. It is the only facility of its kind in the United States and one of only nine in the world. It is the largest and highest powered magnet laboratory, outfitted with the world's most comprehensive assortment of high-performing magnet systems.
The NHMFL is operated by Florida State University, the University of Florida and Los Alamos National Laboratory, and is supported by NSF and the state of Florida. [See also, Assembling Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Magnet, elsewhere in the library.]
