Abstract

A simple and rather efficient method for measuring the spin–spin relaxation time T 2 in nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) is proposed. The method uses the phase cycling (or alternation) technique and is rather efficient in measuring short T 2 times. Results on the use of this method for detecting NQR signals on nuclei of nitrogen 14N in a (CH2)6H4 polycrystal are presented. The application of modified pulse sequences enables rather accurate measurements of the T 2 time for this compound.
