Equivalent scale factor of the probe light intensity. The offset at I0 = 1.02 mW is subtracted from all the signals. Dash dotted line with squares: KΩI0 = −104 °/h · mW−1 at Bx = −2.3 nT (compensation point); Solid line with circles: KΩI0 = 0.03 °/h · mW−1 at Bx = −5.7 nT (zero point); Dotted line with left triangles: KΩI0 = −57.4 °/h · mW−1 at Bx = Ȓ3.9 nT (positive offset); Dashed line with right triangles: KΩI0 = 50.5 °/h · mW−1 at Bx = −7.5 nT (negative offset). In our experiments, KΩI0 at zero point can be suppressed by above three orders compared with that at compensation point. The error bars of the experimental data are plotted along with the lines, but they are too small to be distinguished.
