Abstract: Time-proportional-phase-increment (TPPI) techique is used to remove the radiation damping related harmonic peaks from two-dimensional correlation (COSY) and multiple-quantum (MQSY) spectra. In 2D experiments, the mixing c/2 pulse usually changes the phase of the water magnetization nonlinearly. The combination of this nonlinear phase change with radiation damping results in chemical-shift-offset dependent harmonic peaks. However, if the phase of the mixing pulse is proportional to the evolution time t1, the harmonic peaks disappear completely while the water peak remains unchanged.

Key words: Radiation damping, TPPI, Harmonic peaks, COSY, MQSY
