NUCLEAR QUADRUPOLE RESONANCE SPECTROMETER
Résumé
The disclosure notably relates to a Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance (NQR) spectrometer comprising a System on Chip (SoC) Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) communicatively coupled to an external memory. The SoC FPGA is configured to perform the function of a pulse programmer for producing pulse sequences. The pulse programmer is configured for reading, sequentially, instructions stored on the external memory. The SoC FPGA is further configured to perform the function of an acquisition module for processing an acquired analog response signal (FID) emitted by nuclei of a material to be studied and for recording the processed signal on the external memory. The NQR spectrometer offers improved portability, usability and sensitivity with respect to the state of the art.
