Lower than low: Perspectives on zero- to ultralow-field nuclear magnetic resonance

John W Blanchard et al. J Magn Reson. 2021 Feb.

Abstract

The less-traveled low road in nuclear magnetic resonance is discussed, honoring the contributions of Prof. Bernhard Blümich, aspiring towards reaching 'a new low.' A history of the subject and its current status are briefly reviewed, followed by an effort to prophesy possible directions for future developments.

Keywords: Axions and axion-like particles; Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color center in diamond; Quantum control; Single-spin NMR; Zero- to ultralow-field (ZULF) NMR.
