摘要
We describe an optically pumped Cs magnetometer containing a 1.5-mm-thick microfabricated vapor cell with nitrogen buffer gas operating in a free-induction-decay configuration. This allows us to monitor the free Larmor precession of the spin-coherent Cs atoms by separating the pump and probe phases in the time domain. A single light pulse can sufficiently polarize the atomic sample; however, synchronous modulation of the light field actively drives the precession and maximizes the induced spin coherence. Both amplitude and frequency modulation have been implemented with noise floors of 3 and 16 pT/root Hz, respectively, within the Nyquist-limited bandwidth of 500 Hz.
