Dynamical Decoupling in Distance Measurements by Double Electron-Electron Resonance

Janne Marie Soetbeer determines the optimal dynamical decoupling (DD) scheme for efficient reduction of electron spin coherence loss in model systems for spin labelled biomolecules depending on their particular relaxation behavior. Extending the nth&

Dynamical Decoupling in Distance Measurements by Double ElectronElectron Resonance

BestMasters

Springer awards „BestMasters“ to the best master’s theses which have been com­ pleted at renowned Universities in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. The studies received highest marks and were recommended for publication by supervisors. They address current issues from various fields of research in natural sciences, psychology, technology, and economics. The series addresses practitioners as well as scientists and, in particular, offers guid­ ance for early stage researchers.

Acknowledgements

I would like to thank Yevhen Polyhach for the supervision of this master thesis. Thanks goes to Kamila Guerin for showing me the spin labelling technique for the T4 Lysozyme sample. This thesis would have not been possible without Andreas Dounas work on the optimisation of adiabatic inversion pulse envelopes. I am very much obliged to also thank Andrin Doll for his help at setting up all AWG measurements at both X and Q band. Finally, I would like to thank Professor Gunnar Jeschke for the opportunity to carry out my master thesis in his group and for all the support and discussion related to this thesis.
