Realization of Flexible NMR Microcoils

In this paper, we describe the fabrication of miniaturized flexible Radio frequency RF microcoil for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), which have been constructed based on Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology. 3D Electromagnetic numerical simulations of the physical properties of this...
