A METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING A LINEAR FREQUENCY SWEEP TO OBTAIN HIGH RESOLUTION NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANT SPECTRA IN A NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANT SPECTROGRAPH. THE SIGNAL IS GENERATED BY FEEDING A SIGNAL FS TO A MIXER WHICH RECEIVES A SIGNAL FYZ+E FROM A CONTROLLABLE OSCILLATOR AND FEEDS OUT A SIGNAL K INTO A PHASE DETECTOR. THE PHASE DETECTOR RECEIVES A SIGNAL FROM A POTENTIOMETER VIA A VOLTAGE FREQUENCY CONVERTER, AND FEEDS BACK A SIGNAL THROUGH THE CONTROLLABLE OSCILLATOR VIA AN AMPLIFIER. THE SIGNAL FS+E IS FED INTO A CIRCUIT INCLUDING AT LEAST ONE ADDITIONAL POTENTIOMETER AND VOLTAGE FREQUENCY CONVERTER, AND IS DIVIDED BY A FACTOR GREATER THAN UNITY IN ORDER TO REDUCE THE FREQUCNCY SWEEP. THE DIVIDED SIGNAL IS THEN SHIFTED BY ADDING A SUITABLE CONSTANT SIGNAL FK TO IT, SO AS TO PUT THE OUTPUT SIGNAL INTO THE RANGE WHERE NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE IS OBTAINED.

A CENTRAL PORTION OF THE CAVITY IS CAPABLE OF SUPPORTING TWO RESONANT MODES WHILE ADJOINING EACH SECTIONS EACH SUPPORT ONLY ONE OF THE MODES. WAVEGUIDES CONNECTED TO EACH OF THE END SECTIONS COUPLE MICROWAVE ENERGY TO THE CAVITY TO EXCITE THE TWO MODES THEREIN. A SAMPLE OF MATTER IS INSERTED INTO THE CENTRAL PORTION SO AS TO BE IRRADIATED BY BOTH MODES. A TUNING SCREW IN EACH OF THE END SECTIONS PERMITS INDEPENDENTLY TUNING THE CAVITY TO THE RESONDANT FREQUENCY OF ONE OF THE RESONANT MODES. ADJUSTING SCREWS IN THE CENTRAL PORTION OF THE CAVITY STRUCTURE PERMIT ADJUSTMENT OF THE CROSS COUPLING BETWEEN THE TWO MODES. THE MICROWAVE SPECTROMETER DESIGNS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE ABILITY OF THE CAVITY TO BE INDEPENDENTLY TUNED TO THE RESONANT FREQUENCIES OF EITHER MODE. THE SEVERAL DESIGNS PROVIDE FOR AMPLITUDE MODULATION OF THE FREQUENCY OF THE PUMPING MODE OR SCANNING OF THE FREQUENCY OF THE PUMPING MODE OR MODULATION OF AN APPLIED UNIDIRECTIONAL MAGNETIC FIELD EITHER WITH OR WITHOUT MODULLATION OF THE FREQUENCY OF THE PUMPING MODE.
