Knight shift and spin-lattice relaxation forCu63andP31in amorphous Ni-Cu-P alloys

Abstract
Measurements have been made of the Knight shift and the spin-lattice relaxation time for 63Cu and 31P in amorphous (Ni1x Cux )80 P20 as a function of copper concentration. A negative contribution to the 63Cu Knight shift is observed which is ascribed to polarization of conduction-electron spins by a partially filled d band.
