For xenon atoms adsorbed in Na-A zeolite, electronic interactions cause shifts in NMR frequencies, resulting in a spectrum with discrete peaks from xenon atoms in cages with different xenon occupancies. Using two-dimensional exchange NMR, it is possible to determine the microscopic rates of intercage motion and to relate them to the adsorption and activation energies of the xenon atoms. The dependence of the adsorption energies on xenon cage occupancy reflects the importance of the intercage interactions and is directly related to the cage occupancy distribution. Variable temperature measurements yield an activation energy of about 60 kJ/mol for the transfer of a xenon from one cage to another.

A method for NMR studies of low surface area materials using optically pumped xenon gas is described. The method has been used to investigate spin-polarized xenon adsorbed onto poly(acrylic acid). The temperature dependence of the xenon-surface interaction, as measured by the xenon chemical shifts extrapolated to zero pressure, is shown to be consistent with a simple model of chemical exchange between the gas and adsorbed phases. The magnitude of the surface contribution to the Xe-129 chemical shift indicates a relatively strong interaction between xenon and poly(acrylic acid), possibly due to the polar carboxylic acid functional groups at the polymer surface. From the pressure dependence of the Xe-129 shift, the diffusion coefficient of xenon on poly(acrylic acid) is estimated to be 3.3 x 10(-5) cm2/s.

NMR of Xe-129 has been observed in thin films of xenon frozen onto the surfaces of glass sample cells with various geometries. The Xe-129 polarization was enhanced by optical pumping, and the xenon was then transferred to a high-field pulsed NMR spectrometer allowing the observation of strong signals from xenon films of approximately 1-mu-m thickness. The line shape depends on the film geometry because of the bulk diamagnetic susceptibility chi(D) of solid xenon. The spectral line shape and resonance frequency also depend on temperature.

Optical pumping has been used to enhance the pulsed NMR signal of Xe-129, allowing the detection of low-pressure xenon gas and of xenon adsorbed on powdered solids. We observe an increase in sensitivity of more than 2 orders of magnitude over conventional NMR, the current limitation being the laser power. Adsorbed xenon is observed at 298 K on graphitized carbon (10 m2/g) and on powdered benzanthracene (approximately 0.5 m2/g) below 170 K. The increased sensitivity of this technique allows the study of a large class of amorphous materials with surface areas below 10 m2/g including semiconductors, polymers, metal oxides, and catalysts.
