Diffusion coefficient distribution from NMR-DOSY experiments using Hopfield neural network.
Diffusion ordered spectroscopy (DOSY) is a powerful two-dimensional NMR method to study molecular translation in various systems. The diffusion coefficients are usually retrieved, at each frequency, from a fit procedure on the experimental data, considering a unique coefficient for each molecule or mixture. However, the fit can be improved if one regards the decaying curve as a multiexponential function and the diffusion coefficient as a distribution. This work presents a computer code based on the Hopfield neural network to invert the data. One small-molecule binary mixture with close diffusion coefficients is treated with this approach, demonstrating the effectiveness of the method.
