Abstract
A magnetometer includes a resonant atomic medium, a photonic crystal surface emitting laser (PCSEL), and a light detector. The resonant atomic medium includes color centers or other dopants that form vacancies that fluoresce light when excited by an excitation light having an excitation wavelength. Characteristics of the fluoresced light are dependent upon a magnetic field applied to the resonant atomic medium. The PCSEL is configured to develop the excitation light having the excitation wavelength of the vacancies and direct the excitation light into the resonant atomic medium. The light detector is configured to receive the fluoresced light and generate a measurement signal indicative of the fluoresced light and the magnetic field applied to the resonant atomic medium.
