Water flip-back

From NMR Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

In water flip-back element a hard readout 90o pulse on 1H is preceded by a selective 90o pulse on water resonance with phase opposite to that of the hard pulse.

If 1H magnetization was along z axis before the selective pulse, water resonance will stay along z and won't be observed.
