Abstract
We present a magneto-optic sensing system based on the “off-axis” optical probing technique to control the measurement sensitivity of magnets with various field strengths. The magnetic field is experimentally investigated in the absolute scale through a photonic calibration method with a standard electromagnet. Our all-dielectric magnetic field probe has a wide dynamic range (20 mT–3 T) with good responsivity and low probe invasiveness against the magnetic field being measured. Utilizing this magnetic-field-calibrated probing system, we obtain the magnetic field distribution of permanent magnets. Subsequently, we compare our results with numerical analyses to confirm the effectiveness of the probing system. Finally, we measure the intense magnetic field inside the bore of a 3.0-T clinical magnetic resonance imaging system with our probe.
