A β-NQR spectrometer becomes a powerful tool to study changes in nuclear ground state properties along isotopic chains when coupled to a laser excitation beamline to polarise the nuclei of interest. Recently, the β-NQR technique in a zero magnetic field has been applied for the first-time to measure ratios of static nuclear quadrupole moments of, ^8,9,11Li. Preliminary results of the experiment determining the ratios Q₉/Q₈ and Q₁₁/Q₉ show agreement with present literature values with improved precision.
