High-sensitivity magnetic field sensor based on a dual-core photonic crystal fiber
Abstract:
A high-sensitivity magnetic field sensor based on a dual-core photonic crystal fiber has been designed with an extremely short device length of 2000 μm in this paper. The two cores of the fiber are separated by one air hole filled with magnetic fluid. The sensitive properties are investigated by the full-vector finite element method. Simulation results illustrate that the highest sensitivity can reach -442.7 pm/Oe in the magnetic field strength range of 30-520 Oe. The photonic crystal fiber filled with magnetic fluid, serving as an excellent platform for magnetic field sensing, has great potential applications in complex environments, remote sensing, and real-time monitoring fields.

Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
