Abstract
For the calibration of magnetometer sensors in the field range from 1 mT to 200 mT, a measuring setup has been developed consisting of a water-cooled multilayer solenoid and a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-magnetometer of the marginal oscillator type. With a coil constant of about 20 mT/A, the field coil provides a field profile with two flat regions, where the field maxima are equal within 10/sup -5/ and with a distance of more than 40 mn so that the magnetometer readings can be compared simultaneously. The NMR-magnetometer operates with water samples having an absorption linewidth of 2 /spl mu/T by adding paramagnetic CuSO/sub 4/-ions. The volume of the samples amounts to 0.8 cm/sup 3/ to 1.5 cm/sup 3/ for fields below 20 mT and 0.08 cm/sup 3/ to 0.5 cm/sup 3/ for higher fields. The uncertainty of detecting the center of the absorption line amounts to less than 0.1 /spl mu/T.
