The Magnetic Field

Novel magnetic field sensors are based on a “cross-shape” ferromagnetic film (FMF) attached to a silicon diaphragm and piezoresistive membrane. The interaction between the magnetic field and the (FMF) generates a deflection of the diaphragm, which changes the piezoresistance and unbalances a Wheatstone bridge. The effect of FMF and silicon diaphragm thickness on the sensor performance is studied by the finite element simulation. The performance of sensor can be improved by optimizing the size of “cross-shape” FMF. These low-cost, low-power sensors are easily integrated with electronic circuits.

Abstract In conjunction with the High Luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider accelerator at CERN, the ATLAS detector is also undergoing an upgrade to handle the significantly higher data rates. The muon end-cap system upgrade in ATLAS, lies with the replacement of the Small Wheel. The New Small Wheel (NSW) is expected to combine high tracking precision with upgraded information for the Level-1 trigger. To accomplish this, small Thin Gap Chamber (sTGC) and MicroMegas detector technologies are being deployed. Due to their installation location in ATLAS, the effects of Barrel Toroid and End-Cap Toroid magnets on NSW must be measured. For the final experiment at ATLAS, each sTGC large double wedge will be equipped with magnetic field Hall effect sensors to monitor the magnetic field near the NSW. The readout is done with an Embedded Local Monitor Board (ELMB) called MDT DCS Module (MDM). For the integration of this hardware in the experiment, first, a detector control system was developed to test the functionality of all sensors before their installation on the detectors. Subsequently, another detector control system was developed for the commissioning of the sensors. Finally, a detector control system based on the above two is under development for the expert panels of ATLAS experiment. In this paper, the sensor readout, the connectivity mapping and the detector control systems will be presented.

The Magnetic Field

When a soft ferromagnetic material is flown by an ac current and a magnetic field is applied at the same time, a major change of its impedance is occurred. The aim of this paper is to investigate the influence of low frequency (1KHz-12KHz) ac current and the applied magnetic field on an amorphous magnetic wire (Co68Fe4.35Si12.5B15) without glass coating. For this purpose an experimental configuration has been setup, based on a Wheatstone bridge which receives an ac input signal from a frequency generator. The output is connected to the amorphous wire wrapped with a coil supplied by a dc voltage for the generation of the magnetic field. The output voltage pulse is measured for two cases a) The value of ac frequency is changing while the value of dc voltage applied to the coil remains constant (the magnetic field remains unchanged) and b) the magnetic field is changing while the ac frequency remains constant to a predefined value. Experimental results of the first scenario showed that when the frequency is altered a non-linear increase of the ac signal is observed at the output which shows an increase of the GMI effect and is related to the non-linearity of the wire’s permeability. For the second scenario the results showed an increase of the output signal offset (voltage) which also indicates an increase of the GMI effect.

In this article, an innovative approach for magnetic data communication is presented. For this purpose, the receiver coil of a conventional magneto-inductive communication system is replaced by a high-sensitivity wideband magnetic field sensor. The results show decisive advantages offered by sensitive magnetic field sensors, including a higher communication range for small receiver units. This approach supports numerous mobile applications where receiver size is limited, possibly in conjunction with multiple detectors. Numerical results are supported by a prototype implementation employing an anisotropic magneto-resistive sensor.

Magnetoresistive switch effect (MRS effect) devices containing two gold (Au) electrodes with a gap less than 2 µm were successfully fabricated on semi-insulting GaAs substrates by wet etching method. Huge MRS effect was observed. Magnetoresistance (MR) ratio reached 1,000,000% under the magnetic filed of 1.5 T when the devices were operated just above the threshold voltage. The magnetic field sensitivity at small magnetic fields was significantly improved. MR ratio of more than 1000% was achieved at 0.03 T. A relative high MR ratio of 100,000% under the magnetic filed of 1.5 T was also achieved when the devices operating before the threshold voltage.

Abstract The article proposes a method for organizing the communication interface of an unmanned vessel and its operator. The interface contains manual controls for the course and speed of the vessel by regulating the angle of the rudder blade shift and the speed of rotation of the propeller shaft, an automatic system for keeping the vessel on a given trajectory for the purpose of navigating the vessel in automatic and manual modes. The interface comprises a system for obtaining filtration, storing the required kinematic and navigation data for identifying mathematical models of the vessel’s movement and the functioning of the autopilot. The interface allows adjusting the PID controller for automatic guidance of the vessel along the trajectory in real time to optimize automatic control, to correct the readings of the GPS and the Earth’s magnetic field sensors, to calibrate the Earth’s magnetic field sensor. The interface includes graphic and digital fields for displaying kinematic and navigation data on the vessel, autopilot and information on the operation of the operator-vessel complex. The interface allows the exchange of data between the operator and the vessel by means of a data transfer protocol via TCP-IP stack protocols on the radio frequencies of public Wi-Fi networks. The interface is created by means of appdesigner tools on the MATLAB platform.

The design of this explosive detector is an alternative low-cost explosive detector device that can detect the presence of explosives by comparing the value of the magnetic field so that an object will be known to be an explosive or not. This tool can provide additional assistance in the Juanda airport area which still rarely uses conventional explosive detector equipment because the price is still expensive. This design uses a magnetometer sensor that can calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field in the explosives and will send analog inputs in the form of voltage values to the Arduino displayed with LCD media and sound from the buzzer so that the category of explosives can be detected.

A surface-acoustic-wave (SAW) magnetic-field sensor utilizing fundamental, first- and second-order Love-wave modes is investigated. A 4.5   μ m SiO2 guiding layer on an ST-cut quartz substrate is coated with a 200 n m (Fe90Co10)78Si12B10 magnetostrictive layer in a delay-line configuration. Love-waves are excited and detected by two interdigital transducers (IDT). The delta-E effect in the magnetostrictive layer causes a phase change with applied magnetic field. A sensitivity of 1250 ° / m T is measured for the fundamental Love mode at 263 M Hz . For the first-order Love mode a value of 45 ° / m T is obtained at 352 M Hz . This result is compared to finite-element-method (FEM) simulations using one-dimensional (1D) and two-and-a-half-dimensional (2.5 D) models. The FEM simulations confirm the large drop in sensitivity as the first-order mode is close to cut-off. For multi-mode operation, we identify as a suitable geometry a guiding layer to wavelength ratio of h GL / λ ≈ 1.5 for an IDT pitch of p = 12   μ m . For this layer configuration, the first three modes are sufficiently far away from cut-off and show good sensitivity.
