Abstract
The (29)Si spin-lattice relaxation in porous silica-based material 1, doped by ions Mn(2+) at a Si/Mn ratio of 3.5, is non-exponential, independent of magic-angle spinning (MAS) rates and governed by direct dipolar coupling between electron and nucleus where an electron relaxation time is estimated to be about 10(-8)s. In the absence of mutual energy-conserving spin flips (spin diffusion) in 1, the (29)Si T(2) time increases linearly with spinning rates. None was observed in diamagnetic porous system 2. The unexpected (29)Si T(2) dependence has been interpreted in terms of the large bulk magnetic susceptibility (BMS) effects. It has been shown that editing the (29)Si Hahn-echo MAS NMR spectra eliminates wide lines, belonging to (29)Si nuclei in the proximity of paramagnetic centers, and reduces the BMS broadenings in sideband patterns for nuclei remote from these centers.
