Abstract

An experimental comparison of the methods for modulating the parameters of resonant transverse to the external magnetic field pumping radiation in a two-beam optical magnetometric sensor (so called Bell-Bloom scheme) is carried out, as well as a comparison of these methods with the standard method of radio-frequency excitation of magnetic resonance under conditions of strong laser pumping. It is shown that although the standard method allows one to achieve a greater suppression of the spin-exchange broadening of the magnetic resonance line by pumping light, the Bell-Bloom scheme has advantages that make it possible to obtain similar sensitivity values upon modulation of both the intensity and polarization of the pump light; at the same time, the Bell-Bloom scheme is potentially characterized by higher speed, which is essential for the problems of magnetoencephalography and ultra-low field magnetic resonance imaging.
