Second-order effects in parametric-resonance magnetometers based on atomic alignment

Optically-pumped magnetometers (OPM) based on parametric resonance allow real-time tri-axial measurement of very small magnetic fields with a single optical access to the gas cell. Most of these magnetometers ...

Sensing microwave photons with a Bose–Einstein condensate

We consider the interaction of a magnetically trapped Bose–Einstein condensate of Rubidium atoms with the stationary microwave radiation field sustained by a coplanar waveguide resonator. This coupling allows ...

Performance analysis of an optically pumped magnetometer in Earth’s magnetic field

We experimentally investigate the influence of the orientation of optically pumped magnetometers in Earth’s magnetic field. We focus our analysis to an operational mode that promises femtotesla field resolutio...
