JPCL's Latest Cover Feature - Multi-Electron Spin Cluster Enabled Dynamic Nuclear Polarization With Sulfonated BDPA

The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters (JPCL) has officially approved and published a supplementary cover that unveils a remarkable advancement in Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP). The supplementary cover, now available online, highlights a pivotal study conducted on a water-soluble sulfonated BDPA (SA-BDPA) with significant implications for the future of DNP technology. Cover art depicts a single electron, acting as a satellite, receives and broadcasts the intriguing electron spin dynamics of the concealed BDPA clusters which are situated within a molecular chaos. The full paper is available for reading at: https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jpclett.3c02428. Enjoy!
