Abstract
The deuterium relaxation of CDCl3 dissolved in a thermotropic nematic liquid crystal has been studied at 13.0°C and analyzed in the framework of Redfield theory. From the results of a selective Carr–Purcell experiment, a nonselective and two selective inversion ‐ recovery measurements, spectral densities of motion at ω=0, ω=ω0, and ω=2ω0 have been determined, and the results are discussed in relation to present theories for relaxation of solutes in ordered media.
