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 advancements 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 of the magnetic field.
