Biaxial atomic spinning magnetometer

Abstract

The invention discloses a biaxial atomic spinning magnetometer. The biaxial atomic spinning magnetometer comprises an alkali metal gas chamber, non-magnetic electric heating equipment, a three-dimensional magnetic coil, a magnetic shielding layer, a pumping laser module and a detecting laser module. The alkali metal gas chamber is filled with alkali metal atoms, a quenching gas and a buffering gas; the non-magnetic electric heating equipment and the magnetic shielding layer enable the alkali metal atoms to work in a high-temperature and low-magnetic field environment, and ensure the alkali metal atoms in a non-spinning exchange relaxation state; the pumping laser module is used for polarizing the alkali metal atoms; the detecting laser module comprises two beams of independent detecting laser which are perpendicular to each other, and are used for sensing the magnetic field intensity in two directions which are perpendicular to each other simultaneously; measurement results are demodulated through a phase-locked amplifier. The biaxial atomic spinning magnetometer can acquire biaxial magnetic field information simultaneously through one alkali metal gas chamber, has the characteristics of high sensitivity, high integration degree and low cost, and has a wide application prospect in the fields of brain magnetic measurement, magnetocardiographic measurement and the like.
