The center will focus on the development of solid-state NMR and develop 1.2 – 1.3 GHz NMR equipment using high-temperature superconducting magnets. Liquid Helium consumption will be strongly reduced, and a 4D Super Multimodal imaging technology will be developed, combining PET, MRI, ultrasound and optical spectroscopy. The aim is to dramatically improve Japan’s industrial competitiveness in the analytical instrument market.
