摘要
Magnetometers have received considerable attention in recent years. Magnetic components offer an alternative methodology to improve the sensitivity. Due to their exceedingly small structural dimensions, metasurfaces exhibit significant competitiveness in field modulation. A magnetic field concentration phenomenon of spheres at the nanoscale is presented in this paper. The sensitivity of a magnetometer is, therefore, improved through the enhanced static or quasistatic magnetic field by the nanosphere concentrator. Magnetic field redistribution due to the assistance of nanospheres is discussed in this paper using the finite element method. The numerical method is verified with classical analytical equations with a single sphere. The simulation results show that the magnetic field concentrates in the near field behind the nanosphere along the direction of the magnetic flux density. The radius, material or permeability exactly, and distribution are critical parameters to the concentration strength. The magnetic gain of a single nanosphere with typical positive permeability of the typical soft magnetic material reaches 3, and thus, the field along the magnetic flux direction concentrates. Furthermore, the amplification factor is more prominent with the nanosphere arrays compared to a single sphere with the same scale of size, and amplification improves with the sphere numbers and distributions in the array arrangement, which provides a novel approach for the designing of the magnetic flux concentrator being monolithically integrated with the magnetometer probe. Our simulation results provide a new degree of freedom by using nanoscale structures to manipulate magnetic fields.
