non ideal pulses with saffron

[lorenz]

Dear easyspin team,

1. By using a user defined pulse sequence in saffron, what is the definition of the inital pulse deplays (Exp.t)?
Are these the values from the beginning of one pulse to the beginning of the next pulse, or from the end of one pulse to the beginning of the next pulse?
2. Is the Option Opt.nOffsets the Offset in the time-domain or in the frequency domain?

1. The delays in Exp.t are from the end of one pulse to the beginning of the next pulse.
2. Opt.nOffsets determines the number of frequency offsets to integrate over. These are important when using finite-length pulses. The width of the distribution of offset frequencies is set in Opt.lwOffset.

Thanks you very much.

Last question:
Is the last value in Exp.t the delay from the last pulse to the echo?

[Stefan Stoll]

It is the delay between the end of the last pulse and the point of detection (saffron can only do single-point detection at a specific point in time).
