Abstract

We report 133Cs and 23Na spectra of Cs8NaxGe136 clathrates. Fully loaded Cs8Na16Ge136 shows only ionic signals from both Cs and Na nuclei. In contrast to the Cs8Na16Si136 clathrate, germanium Cs8Na16Ge136 clathrate shows no large Knight or paramagnetic shifts. However, when sodium is removed from Cs8Na16Ge136, the resulting Cs8Ge136 clathrate shows a very large shift in the 133Cs NMR spectrum.
