The Construction of a Transmission Line Superregenerative Receiver for Use in Pure Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance Spectroscopy

Abstract

The purpose of this project was to build a device that would be both a source of r-f energy and a detector capable of detecting an absorption of energy in the 100 to 300 me range. Several types of radio-frequency spectrometers have been used, but one that has met with a great deal of success is the superregenerative receiver.
