1. A magnetic field measuring apparatus comprising:
- a light irradiation part that radiates linearly-polarized light;
a first cell and a second cell with alkali metal atoms enclosed therein sequentially placed in a sensitive direction of a magnetic field;
a first optical device placed on a first reference surface and entering the linearly-polarized light into the first cell; and
a second optical device placed on a second reference surface and entering the linearly-polarized light into the second cell,wherein a position of the second reference surface with respect to the first reference surface is adjusted so that an orientation of an optical axis of a first reflected light of light relating to the first reference surface and an orientation of an optical axis of a second reflected light of light relating to the second reference surface in parallel to that light may be the same direction.

Abstract
A magnetic field measuring apparatus includes a first cell and a second cell in which alkali metal atoms are respectively enclosed, a light guide that enters laser light into the first cell and the second cell, and a position adjustment mechanism, and a position of a second reference surface with respect to a first reference surface is adjusted and orientations of optical axes of a beam light relating to the first reference surface and a beam light relating to the second reference surface are the same direction.

7. A manufacturing method of a magnetic field measuring apparatus including
a light irradiation part that radiates linearly-polarized light, a first cell and a second cell with alkali metal atoms enclosed therein, a first optical device placed on a first reference surface and entering the linearly-polarized light into the first cell, and a second optical device placed on a second reference surface and entering the linearly-polarized light into the second cell, the method comprising: -
a placement step of sequentially placing the first cell and the second cell in a sensitive direction of a magnetic field; an optical axis detection step of detecting an orientation of an optical axis of a first reflected light of light relating to the first reference surface and an orientation of an optical axis of a second reflected light of light relating to the second reference surface in parallel to that light; and a position adjustment step of adjusting a position of the second reference surface with respect to the first reference surface so that the orientation of the optical axis of the first reflected light and the orientation of the optical axis of the second reflected light may be the same direction based on a result of the optical axis detection step. - View Dependent Claims (8)
