Signal-enhanced high-sensitivity atomic magnetometer based on multi-pass cell
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: We propose a signal- and sensitivity-enhanced spin-exchange-relaxation-free atomic magnetometer utilizing a multi-pass cell with a highly spatially homogeneous optical pumping scheme. The relationship between the magnetometer’s performance and the number of probe beam passes is measured. The optical rotation angle exhibits a linear correlation with the number of passes, achieving 89 mrad nT−1 for a quadruple-pass cell. However, the sensitivity does not increase linearly when further increasing the optical length due to the noise limit. This work provides a method to study the enhancement performance of the magnetic response and sensitivity in atomic magnetometers by using multi-pass cells.
