Micro-imaging with an atomic magnetometer and flux guide
Abstract
Micro-imaging may be performed with an ultra-sensitive atomic magnetometer (AM) and an array of flux guides (FGs). The array of FGs may be configured to act as a magnetic lens that expands microscopic magnetic distribution to match dimensions of the AM. A plurality of single channel AMs may be combined into an array, or the AM may include an array of photodetectors, to realize multi-channel operation.
