However, NMR spectroscopy is no longer the prerogative of just a few elite workplaces that can afford extremely expensive instruments and highly specialized professionals. In addition, such devices require large amounts of coolants to achieve the superconductivity of the magnets: liquid nitrogen and helium.

The simplification of picoSpinspectrometers consists in replacing the superconducting magnet with a permanent one corresponding to the operating frequency of 45 MHz or 80 MHz. This eliminates the need for cryogenic liquids and reduces the weight and dimensions of the device.
