The method for detecting magnetic fields based on magnetic fluid (MF) and fiber bundle was successfully demonstrated. The sensor works by measuring changes in the refractive index of MF due to changes in magnetic fields. Using MF with a concentration of 2.5%, the proposed sensor successfully detected a magnetic field in the range of 25.3 to 83.5 mT with a resolution of 3.3 mT.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
