Multiple-quantum NMR spin dynamics of inhomogeneous one-dimensional systems in solids

Multiple-quantum NMR spin dynamics of inhomogeneous one-dimensional systems in solids is investigated by analytical and numerical methods. A fermion approach for MQ spin dynamics of one-dimensional inhomogeneous systems is developed in the approximation of the dipole-dipole interactions (DDI) of nearest neighbors. It is shown that only MQ coherences of the zeroth and plus/minus second orders appear in the approximation of the DDI of the nearest neighbors even in inhomogeneous one-dimensional systems. We also investigate MQ dynamics of inhomogeneous chains numerically. Intensities of MQ NMR coherences for a linear chain consisting of 3000 spins are calculated.
