Abstract:
Optically pumped helium magnetometers are important instruments whichhave many applications in military, mass spectroscopy and space applications. In thispaper, the working principles of helium magnetometers have been explained. There isalso an introduction of a new method for finding the resonant frequency, which hasadvantages to the typical method such as more sample rate possibility and realizing withcheaper prices.

High Sensitivity Optically Pumped Quantum Magnetometer
Quantum magnetometers based on optical pumping can achieve sensitivity as high as what SQUID-based devices can attain. In this paper, we discuss the principle of operation and the optimal design of an optically pumped quantum magnetometer. The ultimate intrinsic sensitivity is calculated showing that optimal performance of the magnetometer is attained with an optical pump power of 20 μW and an ...
full textAn isotropic earth field scalar magnetometer using optically pumped helium 4
Optical pumping was originally suggested by Kastler [I] in 1950 and since the early 1960's numerous helium magnetometers based upon that technique have been developed. Since then the main evolution has consisted in the advent in 1986 of tunable lasers suitable for helium optical pumping. They led to a renewed interest in helium magnetometry essentially because the magnetometer resolution is exp...

Optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) based on lasers and alkali-metal vapor cells are currently the most sensitive non-cryogenic magnetic field sensors. Many applications in neuroscience and other fields require high-resolution, high-sensitivity magnetic microscopic measurements. In order to meet this demand we combined a cm-size spin-exchange relaxation-free (SERF) OPM and flux guides (FGs) t...

We report on high-power operation of an optically pumped external-cavity semiconductor disk laser. 13.2W optical output power at 970 nm has been achieved in a double-pass pump configuration. The laser Bragg mirror was designed to provide not only high reflectivity for the laser wavelenth but also for the pumping beam. A proper layer structure which supports standing-wave patterns with a node ne...
full textAn Optically Pumped Magnetometer Working in the Light-Shift Dispersed Mz Mode
We present an optically pumped magnetometer working in a new operational mode-the light-shift dispersed Mz (LSD-Mz) mode. It is realized combining various features; (1) high power off-resonant optical pumping; (2) Mz configuration, where pumping light and magnetic field of interest are oriented parallel to each other; (3) use of small alkali metal vapor cells of identical properties in integrat...
full textOptically Pumped Electron Spin Filter
This paper reports the first experimental demonstration of an optically pumped electron spin filter. Unpolarized electrons produced in a cold-cathode discharge drift through a mixture of spin-polarized Rb and a nitrogen or helium buffer gas. Through spin-exchange collisions with the Rb, the drifting electrons become polarized along the optical pumping axis. We study the role of the buffer gas i...
