Sn-119 solid-state NMR results show that the IGCT prepared samples have good crystallinity and phase purity compared to the samples prepared by the chemical method. The determination of Sn-119 chemical shielding parameters (delta(iso), Delta delta and eta) from slow MAS spectra shows that the Sn-119 isotropic chemical shift (delta(iso)) is strongly influenced at smaller grain sizes, attributable to the change in the O2- local symmetry for the surface Sn-119 ions at smaller grain sizes. The observed line widths in MAS spectra are significantly larger than the life-time broadening due to spin-lattice (T-1) and spin-spin (T,) relaxation. The Sn-119 MAS NMR spectra are thus inhomogeneously broadened by a distribution of isotropic chemical shifts, the line broadening increasing with decrease in grain size.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.351</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harindranath, K.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Viswanath, K.

An earlier low-field Al-27 solid-state NMR study reported five different Al sites in this system: one AlO4, one AlO5, and three AlO6 sites; whereas a later high-field study showed that the AlO5 site is a distorted AlO4 site with a very large quadrupolar coupling constant (similar to 20 MHz). Our magic angle spinning (MAS) and 3-quantum magic angle spinning (3QMAS) NMR studies at 7.05 T unambiguously show evidence for an AlO5 site. However, evidence for the presence of a distorted AlO4 site is obtained from studies at high fields (16.4 and 17.6 T), in addition to the AlO5 site. Thus the present solid-state NMR studies give evidence for the simultaneous presence of both the five-coordinated and distorted four-coordinated sites in this system. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
