Conventionally, arrayed nuclear magnetic resonance experiments, such as diffusion and relaxation, are performed with the same number of scans ( NS ) at each iteration despite the signal‐to‐noise ratio being more than sufficient for many of the iterations. Here, we propose a simple yet effective approach that significantly shortens experimental times by varying NS through the arrayed experiments while keeping the signal‐to‐noise ratio essentially the same and retaining experimental accuracy.
