摘要: A dip of the transverse component of the magnetic moment as a function of resonance frequency-detuning will emerge when the intensity of oscillating magnetic field exceeds a specific value, which is demonstrated theoretically and experimentally. The linewidth of magnetic-resonance signal can be much smaller than when the MxMR magnetometer operates on condition that the intensity of oscillating magnetic field is smaller than this specific value, and the MxMR magnetometer can possess a much higher signal-to-noise ratio. The experimental result shows that the sensitivity of MxMR magnetometer can be improved by an order of magnitude under this condition.
