Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) at high magnetic fields (9.2 T, 400 MHz 1H NMR frequency) requires microwave power sources to achieve saturation of the EPR transitions. Here we describe first high-field liquid-state DNP results using a high-power gyrotron source (20 W 260 GHz). A enhancement −29 on water protons was obtained for an aqueous solution Fremy's Salt; in comparison previous highest value −10 solid-state (maximum 45 mW). The increased enhancements are partly due larger and...
