We obtained nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of liquids in fields of a few microtesla, using prepolarization in fields of a few millitesta and detection with a dc superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID). Because the sensitivity of the SQUID is frequency independent, we enhanced both signal-to-noise ratio and spectral resolution by detecting the NMR signal in extremely tow magnetic fields, where the NMR tines become very narrow even for grossly inhomogeneous measurement fields. In the absence of chemical shifts, proton-phosphorous scalar (J) couplings have been detected, indicating the presence of specific covalent bonds. This observation opens the possibility for \"pure J spectroscopy\" as a diagnostic tool, for the detection of molecules in low magnetic fields.

The transfer of spin polarization from laser-polarized helium and xenon to spins such as H-1 and C-13 On the surface of high-surface-area solids (Aerosil) is demonstrated over a temperature range from 4 to 200 K. The transfer mechanism is dipole-dipole cross relaxation between the spins of the adsorbed mobile noble gas and the surface spins (spin-polarization-induced nuclear Overhauser effect). The enhancement of surface proton magnetization by laser-polarized helium at 4 K and 10 K is between one and twofold. Using laser-polarized xenon, enhancement factors of up to 20 were obtained when compared to the Boltzmann polarization in a field of 4.2 T and at a temperature of 130 K.

The zero-field free induction decay of solid ammonium perchlorate at 1.5 K has been directly detected with a dc superconducting quantum interference device. The Fourier-transform spectrum consists of three sharp lines at 17.4, 38.8, and 56.2 kHz arising from pure N-14 nucLear quadrupole resonance transitions. The absence of splittings and resonance transitions from dipolar-coupled proton spins is attributed to reorientation of the ammonium groups by quantum tunneling in combination with motional averaging in the three proton levels characterized by the irreducible representation T. The measured N-14 spin-spin relaxation time is 22+/-2 ms and the spin-lattice relaxation time is 63+/-6 ms.
