  • Axially constrained RF probe coil
    Patent number: 7106063
    Abstract: An NMR resonant structure is formed of axial conductors (54a, 54b, 54c, and 54d) and end members (50,51), supporting said conductors to form a coil structure (8) of desired electrical topology wherein the end members combine the function of RF interconnects between selected axial conductors (inductors) with an axial constraint on RF field prevailing outside the axial bounds of the end members, and if so desired, comprise a selected capacitance 61 for the resonant structure.
