Quantitative study of optical pumping in the presence of spin-exchange relaxation

Shi, Yongqi ; Scholtes, Theo ; Grujić, Zoran D. ; Lebedev, Victor ; Dolgovskiy, Vladimir ; Weis, Antoine

In: Physical Review A, 2018, vol. 97, no. 1, p. 013419

We have performed quantitative measurements of the variation of the on-resonance absorption coefficients κ0 of the four hyperfine components of the Cs D1 transition as a function of laser power P, for pumping with linearly and with circularly polarized light. Sublevel populations derived from rate equations assuming isotropic population relaxation (at a rate γ1) yield algebraic κ0(P)...

A quantitative study of particle size effects in the magnetorelaxometry of magnetic nanoparticles using atomic magnetometry

Dolgovskiy, Vladimir ; Lebedev, Victor ; Colombo, Simone ; Weis, Antoine ; Michen, Benjamin ; Ackermann-Hirschi, Liliane ; Petri-Fink, Alke

In: Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials, 2015, vol. 379, p. 137–150

The discrimination of immobilised superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) against SPIONs in fluid environments via their magnetic relaxation behaviour is a powerful tool for bio-medical imaging. Here we demonstrate that a gradiometer of laser-pumped atomic magnetometers can be used to record accurate time series of the relaxing magnetic field produced by pre-polarised SPIONs. We have...
