  • Multiple resonance superconducting probe
    Patent number: 6169399
    Abstract: A superconducting multiple resonance probe for detecting multiple nuclei resonating at different frequencies for use in magnetic resonance imaging, microscopy and spectroscopy. The probe is configured as having two or more superconducting coils in close proximity, each coil tuned to a different frequency, where an adjustment is made for a frequency shift caused by the mutual inductance between the coils. The coils can be placed in concentrically in a plane or can be vertically layered.
