The present invention relates to a cell (113) for optically-pumped atomic magnetic gradiometry, comprising: - a first confining chamber (101d) containing alkali atoms, and configured to receive a co-propagating pump and probe light beam, including pump light polarized to spin polarize the alkali atoms, and - at least a second confining chamber (101d) containing alkali atoms, distanced from the first confining chamber (101d), and which is also configured to receive a co-propagating pump and probe light beam. The present invention also relates to an optically-pumped atomic magnetic gradiometer including the cell of the invention, and to a system comprising the gradiometer of the invention and a microscopy system.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a cell (113) for optically-pumped atomic magnetic gradiometry, comprising: - a first confining chamber (101d) containing alkali atoms, and configured to receive a co-propagating pump and probe light beam, including pump light polarized to spin polarize the alkali atoms, and - at least a second confining chamber (101d) containing alkali atoms, distanced from the first confining chamber (101d), and which is also configured to receive a co-propagating pump and probe light beam. The present invention also relates to an optically-pumped atomic magnetic gradiometer including the cell of the invention, and to a system comprising the gradiometer of the invention and a microscopy system.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
