Abstract
An on-site and fast synchronous measurement of coil constant and nonorthogonal angle, using an all-optical atomic magnetometer, was reported in this article. Based on the spectrum analysis of electron paramagnetic resonance of spin-polarized potassium under different magnetic fields, the measurement models of coil constant and nonorthogonal angle were established, according to which we experimentally obtained the weighted average results with related estimated uncertainties: the coil constants in the x-, y-, and z-axes were (145.9 ± 0.3) nT/mA, (149.5 ± 0.3) nT/mA, and (129.6 ± 0.1) nT/mA, respectively; the nonorthogonal angles existing in the xz and yz axes were (0.11 ± 0.02)° and (0.23 ± 0.02)°, respectively. The determination results of the residual magnetic field in the z-axis, with two comparative experiments, demonstrated the validity of this on-site synchronous measurement method. The present method can be easily used in calibrating coil constant and nonorthogonal angle for all-optical atomic magnetometers, especially for miniaturized ones.
