Abstract

We evaluated the alignment-to-orientation conversion (AOC) at the cesium D1 line to improve a nonlinear magneto-optical rotation (NMOR) optical atomic magnetometer's signal amplitude and bandwidth. For the 6 2S1/2 F = 3 → 6 2P1/2 F' = 4 transition, the AOC-related NMOR achieves a 1.7-fold enhancement in signal amplitude compared to the conventional NMOR, benefiting from narrow linewidth and ultraweak power broadening. Therefore, an effective amplitude-to-linewidth ratio is maintained in the high-laser-power region. This method is beneficial for detecting high-frequency magnetic signals in nuclear magnetic resonance and biomagnetism, as the NMOR magnetometer bandwidth increases with laser power.
