Abstract

Nuclear spin-labelling is a reporter group technique. The basic idea underlying this method is to introduce nuclear spins as probes into the system of interest and to deduce from the observed nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra valuable information about the order and dynamics of the molecular environment. In this chapter we will discuss the principle of the method and some recent applications to liquid crystal polymers.
