ABSTRACTThe 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of thin diamond films deposited from naturally abundant (1.1 at.%) as well as 50% and 100% 13C-enriched CH4 heavily diluted in H2is described and discussed. Less than 0.6 at.% of hydrogen is found in the films which contain crystallites up to ∼15 μm across. The 1H NMR consists of a broad 50–65 kHz wide Gaussian line attributed to H atoms bonded to carbon and covering the crystallite surfaces. A narrow Lorentzian line was only occasionally observed and found not to be intrinsic to the diamonds. The 13C NMR demonstrates that >99.5% of the C atoms reside in a quaternary diamond-like configuration. The 13C spin-lattice relaxation times T1 are four orders of magnitude shorter than in natural diamond and believed to be due to 13C spin diffusion to paramagnetic centers, presumably carbon dangling bonds. Analysis of T1 indicates that within the 13C spin diffusion length of ∼0.05 μm these centers are uniformly distributed in the diamond crystallites, possibly concentrated on the internal surfaces of a relatively dense system of nanovoids.

Abstract. Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP)-enhanced magic angle spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of biological systems is a rapidly growing field. Large signal enhancements make the technique particularly attractive for signal-limited cases, such as studies of complex biological assemblies or at natural isotopic abundance. However, spectral resolution is considerably reduced compared to ambient-temperature non-DNP spectra. Herein, we report a systematic investigation into sensitivity and resolution of 1D and 2D 13C-detected DNP MAS NMR experiments on HIV-1 CA capsid protein tubular assemblies. We show that the magnitude and sign of signal enhancement as well as the homogeneous line width are strongly dependent on the biradical concentration, the dominant polarization transfer pathway, and the enhancement buildup time. Our findings provide guidance for optimal choice of sample preparation and experimental conditions in DNP experiments.
