Dynamic nuclear polarization is an old effect, going back more than fifty years, that has been revived by the work of Robert G. Griffin and coworkers. In the mean time, DNP has found related applications also in ex-situ field-cycling liquid- state NMR and in bio-medical imaging, for example by Klaes Golman and coworkers.
