  • Avoiding non-linearity of optically pumped magnetometer MEG within an actively shielded two-layer mu-metal room [Elektronski vir]
    Sander, Tilmann ; Marhl, Urban, 1993- ; Jazbinšek, Vojko
    Some optically pumped magnetometer (OPM) sensors available for biomagnetic investigations have a linear range limited to ▫$\pm 1$▫nT due to the specific properties of their open loop operation. In a ... two-layer magnetically shielded room of type Ak3b/Vacoshield Advanced with an external active compensation we studied how much sensor movement is allowed until amplitudes exceed the linearity range. Intentional movements were performed by a subject wearing an OPM-MEG sensor array. It was found that movements of 8 cm did yield non-linear amplitudes, but a reduction of the movement in half already preserves linearity. Despite movements,the heartbeat was found to generate a periodic signal, although the generating mechanism could not be identified so far.
