Abstract

A Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) probe device (20) is disclosed. NMR probe device (20) includes a plurality of detection coils (30, 40) each operable to detect a signal from a corresponding one of a plurality of samples (34, 44) undergoing NMR analysis. Also included is a plurality of tuning circuits (31, 41, 38, 48) each coupled to one of detection coils (30, 40) to tune the one of the detection coils (30, 40) to a corresponding resonant frequency for the NMR analysis of the corresponding one of the samples. An electromagnetic shield (22) is positioned between a first one of the detection coils (30, 40) and a second one of the detection coils (30, 40) to isolate the first one of the detection coils (30, 40) and the second one of the detection coils (30, 40) from each other.
