Abstract

The conductive material in an RF coil disposed in the polarizing field of an NMR apparatus in miminized and the current density at each point in the coil kept constant by providing an inductive element and a set of tapered, interidigtated capacitors having a uniform gap therebetween. The invention maximizes the current-carrying capacity of the coil.
