摘要: A magnetometer can include a single, integrated, unitary structure that has a gas cell defining a cavity having a vapor or vaporizable material disposed therein, a collimating element coupled to the gas cell and configured for collimating light directed toward the gas cell, and a lens element coupled the gas cell and configured for redirecting at least a portion of light that has passed through the gas cell. Additionally or alternatively, a gas cell of a magnetometer may be made of sapphire.

摘要: One embodiment is a magnetic field measurement system that includes at least one magnetometer having a vapor cell, a light source to direct light through the vapor cell, and a detector to receive light directed through the vapor cell; at least one magnetic field generator disposed adjacent the vapor cell; and a feedback circuit coupled to the at least one magnetic field generator and the detector of the at least one magnetometer. The feedback circuit includes at least one feedback loop that includes a first low pass filter with a first cutoff frequency. The feedback circuit is configured to compensate for magnetic field variations having a frequency lower than the first cutoff frequency. The first low pass filter rejects magnetic field variations having a frequency higher than the first cutoff frequency and provides the rejected magnetic field variations for measurement as an output of the feedback circuit.

摘要: Measurements of an arbitrary magnetic field having one or more magnetic field components are acquired from a plurality of magnetometers, and a generic model of at least one of the one or more magnetic field components of the arbitrary magnetic field is generated in the vicinity of the magnetometers. The generic magnetic field model comprises an initial number of different basis functions. Maxwell's equations are applied to the generic magnetic field model to reduce the initial number of different basis functions, thereby yielding a Maxwell-constrained model of the magnetic field component(s) of the arbitrary magnetic field, and the magnetic field component(s) of the arbitrary magnetic field are estimated at each of at least one of the magnetometers based on the constrained magnetic field model and the arbitrary magnetic field measurements acquired from each magnetometer.

摘要: A magnetic field measurement system includes at least one magnetometer; and at least one flux concentrator made of a high magnetic permeability material and configured to receive magnetic field signals from a source, to concentrate the magnetic field signals or reorient the magnetic field signals in a preselected direction, and to direct the concentrated or reoriented magnetic field signals toward at least one of the at least one magnetometer. In addition to, or as an alternative to, the flux concentrator, the system can include a passive shield made of the high magnetic permeability material. The system may also include active shielding.
