Proof of concept for auto-resonant structure to increase the field of view of surface coils

To improve the performances of High Temperature Superconducting surface coils, it is essential to enlarge their field of view while keeping the sample-induced noise low. New multi-loop designs could help meeting this challenge. In this work, we present a preliminary study on a copper coil. We first introduce the design, electromagnetic simulations, realization of a multi-loop transmission line resonator copper coil and experimental characterizations. Signal to Noise Ratio-maps of the coil are then acquired in a 3T field.
