Description

A method is presented to calculate the spin relaxation times T1, T2 due to a nonuniform magnetic field, and the linear-in-electric-field precession frequency shift (delta)ωE when an electric field is present, in the diffusion approximation for spins confined to a rectangular cell. It is found that the rectangular cell geometry admits of a general result for T1, T2, and (delta)ωE in terms of the spatial cosine-transform components of the magnetic field.
