- If you are a newcomer to NMR at Illinois, you must go through Basic NMR training. See the staff in 146 RAL to get started
- If you are late for your scheduled time, you must notify Dr. Xu at least 1 hour in advance with her personal verbal or written confirmation. Otherwise, you can be only 10 minutes late before your reservation is:
- Deleted (for 1 day reservations only) or,
- You are billed for an additional 2 hours, plus the time you use the spectrometer(s).
- Depending on the experiments and plan of use for these spectrometers, solids NMR training may be required. Training on these spectrometers is on a per-person basis and independent use of the spectrometers is to be determined by NMR staff.
- Solid-State NMR training will continue at user expense until the trainer feels you are competent enough to safely and effectively obtain NMR spectra by yourself.
- Clean rotors with ALL of their parts will be given to you one day before your scheduled time; therefore, clean rotors with ALL of their parts are to be returned after your scheduled time.
- If all rotor(s) and parts are not returned, or if anything is damaged, your account will be charged the amount required to complete the rotor set.
- If all rotor(s) and parts are not cleaned prior to return, a $10 charge for each uncleaned rotor will be applied to your account.
- If you do not comply with these rules, you will not be allowed to use the Solid State NMR Facility and the NMR Staff will collect data for you and bill your account for both instrument and staff time at the standard rates.
- If the instrument and NMR parts are repeatedly abused, you will not be allowed to use the Solid-State NMR facility and the NMR Staff will collect data for you and bill your account for both instrument and staff time at the standard rates.
