Selective pulse

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-013537",
  "term": "Selective pulse",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A radiofrequency pulse in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy designed to excite only a narrow range of frequencies within a spectrum. This allows for the manipulation of specific spin populations without affecting others. Its spectral bandwidth is typically much smaller than that of a non-selective pulse.",
