  • Patent number: 4621237
    Abstract: A radiofrequency transducer, for nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, comprising a radiofrequency transmission line formed into a loop, having terminals for the connection of a radiofrequency source or receiver thereto in such a manner that the transmission properties of the loop counteract the impedance due to its loop geometry. The transducer may comprise first and second elongate conductors (1,2) spaced by a dielectric material (3), for example polytetrafluoroethylene, and shaped to form the said loop, terminals (4,5) for the two conductors being provided at opposite ends of the loop.
