Magnetic field sensitivity of an optical fiber with magnetostrictive jacket
Abstract:
Expressions are developed for the strains induced by a weak axial magnetic field in an optical fiber with a magnetostrictive jacket. The magnetic field sensitivity of the optical fiber is calculated as a function of jacket thickness for a variety of magnetostrictive jacket materials. The pressure response for various jacket thicknesses is also considered to minimize this effect as a noise source.

Magnetic Susceptibility and Permeability
When diamagnetic materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Hence, the susceptibility for diamagnets has a minimal negative value of 10-5–10-6. Since...
Energy Stored In A Coaxial Cable
In the simplest form, a coaxial cable can be represented by two long hollow concentric cylinders in which the current flows in opposite directions. The magnetic field inside and outside the coaxial cable is determined by using Ampère's law. The magnetic field inside...
