13C or 31P spectroscopy half-volume applications, which retains optimal performance on
the 1H frequency, was built. well as an efficient proton-decoupling coil. Ideally, those coils
have very similar areas of sensitivity, yet show no Specifically, no RF field profile distortions
due to coil interactions were observed. This and the quadrature 1H coil de-significant
