We study and develop optically-pumped magnetometers, utilising micro-fabricated vapor cells. We use both double-resonance and free-induction-decay magnetometers, with an emphasis on making compact devices. Applications range from geophysical surveying to livestock cardiac health monitoring.

This work is part of the continuing UK Quantum Technology Hub in Sensing and Metrology.
