Abstract
An ultra-sensitivity optical-fiber magneto-optic field sensor includes an input fiber passing optical power from an optical source into the sensor; a polarizer optically coupled to and downstream of the input fiber; an analyzer optically coupled to and downstream of the polarizer; an output fiber passing optical power out of the sensor to a photoreceiver; and a magneto-optic crystal element optically coupled between the polarizer and the analyzer. The ultra-sensitivity optical-fiber magneto-optic field sensor has an optical axis extending between the input and output fibers along which a beam of optical power is transmitted.
