  • Patent number: 5229722
    Abstract: In an imaging method for spectroscopy of nuclear quadrupole resonances (NQR) with solid samples to which an RF field having a pulse duration t.sub.p with a base amplitude B.sub.10 constant over the sample length for magnetic excitation of NQR with resonance frequencies .omega. and with magnetic moments coupled to the nuclear quadrupole moments is applied and the NQR signal emitting from the sample is time-depentently detected, the RF field is superimposed by a position-dependent field contribution corresponding to a constant gradient B.sub.1.sup.x which yields together with the constant RF field a position-dependent RF field B.sub.1 (x), for each resonance frequency contained in the detected NQR signal the amplitude including its sign is determined, the measurements are carried out at different flip angles.sqroot.3.multidot..gamma..multidot.B.sub.1 (x).multidot.t.sub.
