Researchers at the University of Melbourne have demonstrated a way to
detect nuclear spins in molecules non-invasively, providing a new tool for biotechnology and materials science.

In the new experiments, the physicists used magnetic resonance to reverse the
nuclear spins in hydrogen isotopes embedded in the OLED, and then were able to
detect how the reversed
spins caused a change in the electrical current through the OLED.
But the signal from the
nuclear «
spin» is very weak and conventional NMR machines require many millions of
nuclear spins to
detect anything.
With our protocol one can
detect, address and control
nuclear spins around an electron
spin unambiguously and individually in a broad frequency band.
