Quantum Imaging of Vector Electromagnetic Radiation (QuIVER)
Abstract
The Quantum Imaging of Vector Electromagnetic Radiation (QuIVER) program is developing full tensor magnetic field sensors and will demonstrate them in DoD-relevant applications and concept of operations. In addition to being diagnostically relevant, such sensitive magnetometers could enable future human-machine/brain-machine interfaces. The DoD and industry also use magnetometers for magnetic anomaly detection, which may allow for the discovery of mineral/oil deposits, discovery of old wellheads, or the detection of improvised explosive devices. In addition, magnetometers offer the possibility of magnetic navigation, which may operate in GPS-denied environments. Recent developments have resulted in the potential to develop highly sensitive vector magnetometers, which would enable the consequent development of sensitive full tensor gradient sensors. Such tensors offer more degrees of freedom than their scalar or vector counterparts and potentially provide additional information about the source.
