量子磁力仪再评说

A Further Review of the Quantum Magnetometers

在本文中再一次评述了四种量子磁力仪的基本原理、研究和开发方面的进展。四种量子磁力仪包括核子旋进磁力仪(质子磁力仪)、光泵磁力仪、超导磁力仪(SQUID)、SERF原子磁力仪。对于地球物理应用来说,德国、加拿大和其它国家的科学家研制成功的全张量航空磁力梯度仪JESSY STAR,是最重要的一项技术突破。美国Seltzer S J和Romalis M V研制的无屏蔽SERF原子磁力仪具有构制另一种类型的全张量航空磁力梯度仪的潜力,如果实现,它将是磁力勘探另一项重要的技术突破。

The basic principle and state-of-the-arts-of four kinds of quantum magnetometers have been reviewed once again.They are nuclear precession magnetometer（proton magnetometer）,optically pumped magnetometer,superconducting magnetometer（SQUID） and SERF atomic magnetometer.For geophysical application,the full tensor airborne magnetic gradiometer-JESSY STAR,is the most important breakthrough made by scientists of German,Canada and other countries.Unshielded SERF atomic magnetometer developed by Seltzer S J and Romalis M V has the potential for constructing another type of full tensor airborne magnetic gradiometer,different from JESSY STAR.That would be another breakthrough in magnetic exploration.
