Definitions
- the invention relates to a microtiter plate and a measuring device for the analysis of a large number of liquid or pasty samples provided as drops using nuclear magnetic resonance.
- Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy allows the investigation of the electronic environment of individual atoms and their interactions with neighboring atoms.
- the components of samples and the structures of molecules can be determined using NMR spectroscopy.
- NMR spectroscopy also forms the basis of magnetic resonance tomography, which is often used in the medical or biological field to examine tissues and organs.
- atomic nuclei have a non-zero nuclear spin and thus a magnetic moment as rotating charge carriers, such as 1 H or 13 C atoms.
- the nuclear spins perform a precession movement, the so-called Larmor precession, around the axis of the constant magnetic field.
- the atomic nuclei change the orientation of their nuclear spins to the magnetic field through the absorption or emission of alternating magnetic fields when these are resonant with the Larmor frequency. This effect is also known as nuclear magnetic resonance.
- the possible magnetic angular momentum quantum states of the nuclear spins are equidistant and dependent on the Larmor frequency.
- the frequency and duration of the Larmor precession depend on the respective nuclear spin and its spatial and chemical environment. The detection of the Larmor precessions based on the Larmor frequencies thus enables a very precise determination of the chemical composition of the sample and the spatial structure of the molecules contained in the sample.
- the alternating magnetic field is usually generated by a magnetic coil.
- inductive methods are often used to detect nuclear magnetic resonances.
- the sample is often surrounded by an induction coil in which an electrical voltage is generated by the alternating magnetic fields emitted by the nuclear spins occurring.
- strong static magnetic fields of up to 25 T are used to polarize the nuclear spins in order to obtain a preferred polarization of nuclear spins aligned in the same way and thus a magnetization that can be measured with conventional magnetic field sensors.
- miniaturization of the NMR measuring devices is not possible.
- the sample to be examined is usually placed in a long glass tube.
- the required sample volume is a few milliliters.
- this is a major disadvantage, particularly in the life sciences sector, since the available volumes of the Samples are often in the microhter range. For example, often only a few microliters of sample can be extracted from cell cultures or tissue points.
- a newer generation of magnetic field sensors falls into the field of so-called quantum sensors, in which a wide variety of quantum effects are used to determine various physical and/or chemical measured variables.
- quantum sensors in which a wide variety of quantum effects are used to determine various physical and/or chemical measured variables.
- approaches are of particular interest with regard to the increasing efforts towards miniaturization while at the same time increasing the performance of the respective sensors.
- Quantum sensors are based on the fact that certain quantum states of individual atoms can be very precisely controlled and read out. In this way, for example, precise and low-interference measurements of electric and/or magnetic fields and gravitational fields with resolutions in the nanometer range are possible.
- various spin-based sensor arrangements have become known, for which atomic transitions in crystal bodies are used to detect changes in movements, electric and/or magnetic fields or gravitational fields.
- various systems based on quantum-optical effects have also become known, such as quantum gravimeters or optically pumped magnetometers, the latter in particular being based on gas cells, among other things.
- various devices which use atomic transitions, for example in various crystal bodies, in order to detect even small changes in movements, electric and/or magnetic fields or gravitational fields.
- diamond with at least one silicon or nitrogen defect center, silicon carbide with at least one silicon defect or hexagonal boron nitride with at least one defect color center is used as the crystal body.
- the crystal bodies can have one or more defects.
- gas cells in which atomic transitions and spin states can be queried optically to determine magnetic and/or electrical properties, among other things.
- a gaseous alkali metal and a buffer gas are usually present in the gas cell.
- Magnetic properties of a surrounding medium can be determined by Rydberg states generated in the gas cell.
- gas cells are used in quantum-based standards, which measure physical quantities with high precision provide. They have long been used in frequency standards or atomic clocks, as is known from EP 0 550 240 B1.

- the following considerations can be transferred to other crystal bodies with corresponding defects.
- each carbon atom is typically covalently bonded to four other carbon atoms.
- a nitrogen vacancy center (NV center) consists of a defect in the diamond lattice, i.e. an unoccupied lattice site, and a nitrogen atom as one of the four neighboring atoms.
- the negatively charged NV- centers are important for the excitation and evaluation of fluorescence signals.
- Excitation light 1 from the green range of the visible spectrum e.g. excitation light 1 with a wavelength of 532 nm, excites an electron from the ground state 3 A into a vibrational state of the excited state 3 E, which emits a fluorescence photon 2 returns to the 3 A ground state with a wavelength of 630 nm.
