摘要
A DC current sensor based on an optically pumped atomic magnetometer is proposed.It has a high linearity in a wide operation range,since the magnetometer measures the absolute magnitude of the magnetic field produced by the current to be measured.The current sensor exhibits a high accuracy with a non-moment solenoid and magnetic shielding to suppress the influence from the environment.The absolute error of the measured current is below 0.08 m A when the range is from 7.5 m A to 750 m A.The relative error is 5.54×10^-5 at 750 m A.
