Table 11.9: Error Budget – Capacitive Coupling Implementation<br />

Error Contribution New S<br />

Theoretical 2.828<br />

Ideal simulation 0.000 2.828<br />

T 1 decay 0.133 2.695<br />

Visibility 0.512 2.183<br />

Finite pulses during always-on coupling 0.116 2.067<br />

Measurement crosstalk 0.240 1.827<br />

Experimental result (T 2 , calibrations, . . . ) 1.816<br />

useful primarily as a tool for understanding the error mechanisms that led to the<br />

lower number. With the help <strong>of</strong> the numerical simulations described in Chapter 3.3<br />

it is possible to create an error budget that identifies the contributions <strong>of</strong> different<br />

imperfections to the reduction <strong>of</strong> the S-value.<br />

The results <strong>of</strong> this analysis are<br />

shown in Table 11.9.<br />

Even though T 1 decay is commonly cited as the biggest<br />

challenge faced by the field, for this experiment it has a relatively small effect<br />

since the overall sequence is fairly short. The biggest reduction results from the<br />

problems associated with the measurement, specifically the low visbilities and<br />

high crosstalk.<br />

Measurement crosstalk affects the experiment in an additional<br />

way since it actively introduces correlations into the result. It can be shown that<br />
