SERF magnetometer array using concurrent amplitude-stabilized optical modulation by Ziqian Yue, Yueyang Zhai, Yuhao Wang, Xiangjin Xu, Junjian Tang

“…Moreover, the array shows high measurement consistency within 10–100 pT, with measurement errors below 0.76 pT and non-linear errors less than 2 %. Compared with traditional DC configurations and magnetic field modulation setups, this configuration eliminates magnetic crosstalk while simultaneously suppressing low-frequency noise and optical fluctuations, which is particularly suitable for bio-magnetic measurements that require long-term stability and low-frequency sensitivity.…”
