When a magnetic field is applied, the atoms undergo energy shifts. The researchers used a laser to measure these shifts ...

As it happens, most major hospitals already use quantum sensors in the form of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines. Pioneered in the 1970s, these devices manipulate the quantum spin states of ...

Lewes, Delaware, May 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Global Magnetic Field Sensor Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.8% from 2024 to 2031, according to a new report published by Verified ...

Researchers have now developed a breakthrough solution—washable and touchless interactive textiles, powered by magnetic field sensors, that could redefine wearable technology.

These sensors must be highly sensitive to detect the low signals that magnetic fields produce. MEG technology can record both normal and abnormal brain signals every millisecond.

A huge number of these magnetic field sensors can exist in a thin layer of diamond. This makes it possible for us to create a magnetic image of the object that the sensor sees," explained Wickenbrock.

Magnetic resonance technology is a common technique used for chemical analysis of compounds, however, traditional resonance technologies operate at high magnetic fields and they're very expensive.

The researchers used their magnetic sensor to track muscle movements during these activities, and found that the system could calculate muscle lengths in less than a millisecond.
