چکیده

An all-optical atomic magnetometer is used to detect a proton free-precession signal from a water sample polarized in a 0.7 T field and remotely analyzed in a 4 microT field. Nuclear spins are manipulated either by pi/2 pulses or by non-adiabatic rotation. The magnetometer operates at room temperature, in an unshielded environment and has a dual-channel sensor for differential measurements.

Zero-field NMR enhanced by parahydrogen in reversible exchange.

We have recently demonstrated that sensitive and chemically specific NMR spectra can be recorded in the absence of a magnetic field using hydrogenative parahydrogen induced polarization (PHIP) (1-3) and detection with an optical atomic magnetometer. Here, we show that non-hydrogenative parahydrogen-induced polarization (4-6) (NH-PHIP) can also dramatically enhance the sensitivity of zero-fiel...

Magneto-Optical properties of GaP single crystal

The temperature dependence of magneto-optical and magneto-photoconductivity measurements were carried out in the range of (200-330) K. A home made optical cryostat was used for the measurements. The measured room temperature value of the energy gap was found to be 2.211 eV. The temperature coefficient of energy gap was found to be -5.48×10-4 eV/K obtained by the optical absorption method and -4...

Dual channel self-oscillating optical magnetometer

We report on a two-channel magnetometer based on non-linear magneto optical rotation in Cs buffered glass cell. The Cs atoms are optically pumped and probed by free running diode lasers tuned to the D2 line. A wide frequency modulation of the pump laser is used to produce both synchronous Zeeman optical pumping and hyperfine repumping. The magnetometer works in an unshielded environment and spu...

Proposal for a spintronic femto-Tesla magnetic field sensor

We propose a spintronic magnetic field sensor, fashioned out of quantum wires, which may be capable of detecting very weak magnetic fields with a sensitivity of ∼ 1 fT/ √ Hz at a temperature of 4.2 K, and ∼ 80 fT/ √ Hz at room temperature. Such sensors have applications in magnetometry, quantum computing, solid state nuclear magnetic resonance, magneto-encephalography, mine detection, ground in...

Assessment of an Unshielded Electron Field Diode Dosimeter for Beam Scanning in Small- to Medium-Sized 6 MV Photon Fields

Introduction Radiotherapy planning systems require many percentage depth dose (PDD) and profile measurements and there are various dosimeters that can be used to obtain these scans. As dose perturbation is particularly troublesome in smaller photon fields, using a low-perturbation, unshielded electron field diode (EFD) in these fields is of interest. The aim of this work was to investigate the ...
