The response of a spin system to Rabi modulated
continuous wave excitation has recently been shown to
achieve a substantial steady-state magnetization that
exhibits periodic orbits. We exploit this steady-state
behavior and explore off resonance effects, in two
proof-of-concept experiments and corresponding
simulations of the Bloch equation. Our experiments
confirm that harmonics of the periodic steady-state
magnetization orbits are affected by off-resonance
effects and therefore contain chemical shift
information, in agreement with predictions. We
furthermore demonstrate that chemical shift information
can be encoded in a series of CW excitations and used to
reconstruct a simple spectrum.
