Deuteron spin-lattice relaxation in high pressure ice II has been investigated at different temperatures.

Ice II, one of the high pressure polymorphs of ice, is a completely proton-ordered structure in which two crystallographicly distinguishable types of water molecules form a tetrahedrally linked network of hydrogen bonds.

Deuteron spin-lattice relaxation is sensitive to dynamics in the domain of the Larmor frequency at 46.7 MHz. Measurements at different temperatures of the deuteron spin-lattice relaxation time T1 show that the magnetization recovery is unequivocally non-exponential which indicates a distribution of correlation times.

The samples (D2O) have been prepared at appropriate pressures and temperatures. They can be recovered to ambient pressure at liquid nitrogen temperature where they remain metastable and can be studied. The sample quality is verified by x–ray diffraction. T1–measurements have been performed while increasing the temperature stepwise. At a defined temperature a discontinuity in T1 indicates a phase transition. The high pressure ice phase transforms to crystalline cubic ice Ic.
