We report measurements of the dynamics of isolated $^{8}$Li$^{+}$ in single crystal rutile TiO$_{2}$ using $beta$-detected NMR. From spin-lattice relaxation and motional narrowing, we find two sets of thermally activated dynamics: one below 100 K; and one at higher temperatures. At low temperature, the activation barrier is $26.8(6)$ meV with prefactor $1.23(5) times 10^{10}$ s$^{-1}$. We suggest this is unrelated to Li$^{+}$ motion, and rather is a consequence of electron polarons in the vicinity of the implanted $^{8}$Li$^{+}$ that are known to become mobile in this temperature range. Above 100 K, Li$^{+}$ undergoes long-range diffusion as an isolated uncomplexed cation, characterized by an activation energy and prefactor of $0.32(2)$ eV and $1.0(5) times 10^{16}$ s$^{-1}$, in agreement with macroscopic diffusion measurements. These results in the dilute limit from a microscopic probe indicate that Li$^{+}$ concentration does not limit the diffusivity even up to high concentrations, but that some key ingredient is missing in the calculations of the migration barrier. The anomalous prefactors provide further insight into both Li$^{+}$ and polaron motion.

We report measurements of the diffusion rate of isolated ion-implanted $^{8}$Li$^{+}$ within $sim$120 nm of the surface of oriented single-crystal rutile TiO$_2$ using a radiotracer technique. The $alpha$-particles from the $^{8}$Li decay provide a s
ensitive monitor of the distance from the surface and how the depth profile of $^{8}$Li evolves with time. The main findings are that the implanted Li$^{+}$ diffuses and traps at the (001) surface. The T-dependence of the diffusivity is described by a bi-Arrhenius expression with activation energies of 0.3341(21) eV above 200 K, whereas at lower temperatures it has a much smaller barrier of 0.0313(15) eV. We consider possible origins for the surface trapping, as well the nature of the low-T barrier.
$beta$-NMR of isolated $^8$Li has been investigated in the normal state of 2H-NbSe$_2$. In a high magnetic field of 3T a single resonance is observed with a Gaussian line width of 3.5 kHz. The line shape varies weakly as function of magnetic field an
d temperature but has a strong orientation dependence. The nuclear electric quadrupole splitting is unresolved implying that the electric field gradients are 10-100 times smaller than in other non-cubic crystals. The nuclear spin relaxation rate is also anomalously small but varies linearly with temperature as expected for Korringa relaxation in a metal. These results suggest that Li adopts an interstitial position between the weakly coupled NbSe$_2$ layers and away from the conduction band.
We have studied a mosaic of 1T-CrSe$_2$ single crystals using $beta$-detected nuclear magnetic resonance of $^{8}$Li from 4 to 300 K. We identify two broad resonances that show no evidence of quadrupolar splitting, indicating two magnetically distinc
t environments for the implanted ion. We observe stretched exponential spin lattice relaxation and a corresponding rate ($1/T_1$) that increases monotonically above 200 K, consistent with the onset of ionic diffusion. A pronounced maximum in $1/T_1$ is observed at the low temperature magnetic transition near 20 K. Between these limits, $1/T_1$ instead exhibits a broad minimum with a remarkable absence of strong features in the vicinity of structural and magnetic transitions between 150 and 200 K. Together, the results suggest $^{8}$Li$^{+}$ site occupation within the van der Waals gap between CrSe$_2$ trilayers. Possible origins of the two environments are discussed.
Using ion-implanted $^8$Li $beta$-detected NMR, we study the evolution of the correlated metallic state of LaNiO$_3$ in a series of LaNiO$_3$/LaAlO$_3$ superlattices as a function of bilayer thickness. Spin-lattice relaxation measurements in an appli
ed field of 6.55 T reveal two equal amplitude components: one with metallic ($T$-linear) $1/T_{1}$, and a second with a more complex $T$-dependence. The metallic character of the slow relaxing component is only weakly affected by the LaNiO$_3$ thickness, while the fast component is much more sensitive, exhibiting the opposite temperature dependence (increasing towards low $T$) in the thinnest, most magnetic samples. The origin of this bipartite relaxation is discussed.
We report {beta} detected nuclear magnetic resonance ({beta}NMR) measurements of 8Li+ implanted into high purity Pt. The frequency of the 8Li {beta}NMR resonance and the spin-lattice relaxation rates 1/T1 were measured at temperatures ranging from 3
to 300 K. Remarkably, both the spin-lattice relaxation rate and the Knight shift K depend linearly on temperature T although the bulk susceptibility does not. K is found to scale with the Curie-Weiss dependence of the Pt susceptibility extrapolated to low temperatures. This is attributed to a defect response of the enhanced paramagnetism of Pt, i.e. the presence of the interstitial Li+ locally relieves the tendency for the Curie-Weiss susceptibility to saturate at low T . We propose that the low temperature saturation in c{hi} of Pt may be related to an interband coupling between the s and d bands that is disrupted locally by the presence of the Li+.
