¹³C MAS NMR of Glycine (CSA) [960 Hz]

The following is a sideband least-squares fitting example of a \(^{13}\text{C}\) MAS NMR spectrum of Glycine spinning at 960 Hz. The following experimental dataset is a part of DMFIT [1] examples. We thank Dr. Dominique Massiot for sharing the dataset.

Create a fitting model

Spin System

    isotope="13C",
    isotropic_chemical_shift=176.0,  # in ppm
    shielding_symmetric={"zeta": 70, "eta": 0.6},  # zeta in Hz
)
C2 = Site(
    isotope="13C",
    isotropic_chemical_shift=43.0,  # in ppm
    shielding_symmetric={"zeta": 30, "eta": 0.5},  # zeta in Hz
)

spin_systems = [SpinSystem(sites=[C1], name="C1"), SpinSystem(sites=[C2], name="C2")]

Method

# Get the spectral dimension parameters from the experiment.
spectral_dims = get_spectral_dimensions(experiment)

MAS = BlochDecaySpectrum(
    channels=["13C"],
    magnetic_flux_density=7.05,  # in T
    rotor_frequency=960,  # in Hz
    spectral_dimensions=spectral_dims,
    experiment=experiment,  # experimental dataset
)

# Optimize the script by pre-setting the transition pathways for each spin system from
# the method.
for sys in spin_systems:
    sys.transition_pathways = MAS.get_transition_pathways(sys)

Guess Model Spectrum

Least-squares minimization with LMFIT

Use the make_LMFIT_params() for a quick setup of the fitting parameters.

params = sf.make_LMFIT_params(sim, processor, include={"rotor_frequency"})
print(params.pretty_print(columns=["value", "min", "max", "vary", "expr"]))
