Abstract

An ex-situ solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) method employing localized magnetic field gradients generated by a needlelike ferromagnet is described. The depth profiling of a multilayer polymeric film using the proposed method and spin density imaging is successfully acquired. The imaging of the variable-frequency spinlattice relaxation rate in the depth direction reveals differences in the spectral density function for molecular dynamics between the surface and interior of the film. This may be due to the differences in the correlation time distribution of the molecular dynamics between the surfaces and interior of the film.
