The Bruker Avance III 600 is a three channel system with Z-axis gradients that is
capable of performing experiments on both solids and solutions. It is equipped with
three probes which cover a wide range of experiments. A variety of preamplifiers are available
for this instrument, including ones dedicated to 1H, 2H, 19F, and two broadband (one is used mainly for solid NMR and the other one for solution
NMR). The 600 MHz is mainly used for macromolecules or if more resolution (overlapping
resonances) or more sensitivity (limited sample quantity) is desired. Many long-term
experiments are performed on the 600 MHz NMR spectrometer. In particular, 13C-NMR
and multi-dimensional NMR (more than one dimension) are good candidates. It is also
available as an "overflow" valve if the 400 MHz is booked out.
It is possible to do time reservations using the NMR scheduler.
However, as some experiments need a long time to acquire and need special setup, it
may be a good idea to double-check with Dr. Alexander Goroncy before reserving time not on the same day (e.g., days in the future like tomorrow,
next week).
The magnet is shown below.
Some images of the console of the instrument with attached computer and color printer are below. Also shown is the uninterrupted power supply (UPS).
A Bruker BCU-Xtreme cooler makes it easy to change sample temperatures.
