Abstract
An optical magnetometer based on electromagnetically induced transparency is analyzed. Utilizing the different orientation characteristics for different field polarizations, the magnitude and orientation of an applied magnetic field can be measured. As a model system we consider the sodium [Formula Presented] transition taking into account hyperfine structure and optical pumping effects. © 1998 The American Physical Society.
