Schematic of the atomic magnetometer. Pump and probe light enters the magnetometer through the optical fiber, passes through polarization optics, and is collimated by the lens. The light then passes through the atomic vapor cell, the magnetically sensitive volume of the magnetometer, and the mirror reflects the light back through the cell and the lens to the polarization analyzer. The interference filter allows only probe light to enter the polarization analyzer.
