How Does Solid State NMR Compare to Other Techniques?
Solid state NMR is complementary to other characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and infrared spectroscopy (IR). While XRD and TEM provide structural information at different length scales, and IR offers insights into molecular vibrations, solid state NMR uniquely provides local structural and dynamic information at the atomic level.
