Designing Optimal Loop, Saddle, and Ellipse-Based Magnetic Coils by Spherical Harmonic Mapping
Designing Optimal Loop, Saddle, and Ellipse-Based Magnetic Coils by Spherical Harmonic Mapping
Adaptable, low-cost, coils designed by carefully selecting the arrangements and geometries of simple primitive units are used to generate magnetic fields for diverse applications. These extend from magnetic resonance and fundamental physics experiments to active shielding of quantum devices including magnetometers, interferometers, clocks, and computers. However, finding optimal arrangements and …
