Magnetic Field Coils Design

This book belongs to a subfield of quantum precision measurement and sensing, introducing one of the most critical components of atomic devices—magnetic field coils. Atomic devices based on quantum effects possess ultra-high measurement sensitivity and are poised to revolutionize traditional measurement and application technologies. The essential magnetic field manipulation in these devices is realized through coils, which directly determine their measurement sensitivity and accuracy. To this end, this book systematically elaborates on the design methodologies of various magnetic field coils in atomic devices, paving the way for the practical implementation of ultra-high-sensitivity atomic devices.

This book contains detailed derivations of closed-form analytical expressions for magnetic field coils and their resulting formulas, which greatly aid readers in understanding the subject from the level of fundamental electromagnetic principles. Furthermore, this book is richly illustrated with figures and tables that comprehensively present various structural types of magnetic field coils, design outcomes, performance simulation results, and experimental validations. Readers gain a thorough understanding of the entire process of coil design and verification through this work.

This book is primarily intended for researchers engaged in quantum precision measurement and sensing, as magnetic field coils are essential components in nearly all atomic devices. It addresses the high-precision design challenges associated with two categories of magnetic field coils—magnetic control coils and magnetic self-suppressing coils—in atomic devices, thereby providing a foundation for enhancing the measurement sensitivity and accuracy of various atomic instruments. Through this book, readers not only grasp the fundamental requirements and principles of coil design in atomic devices but is also equipped to perform practical magnetic field coil design tailored to specific atomic devices and application scenarios.
