A magnetic field measurement system for an undulator has been developed at the Plasma and Beam Physics (PBP) Research Facility, Chiang Mai University (CMU), as a part of the mid‐infrared (MIR) and terahertz (THz) radiation free‐electron laser (FEL) project. The measurement system consists of a motorized linear translation stage, a Hall magnetic probe, a teslameter, a motor control unit, and control software. The system is designed to precisely control the position of the probe, which can move up to 1.8 m with a minimum step of 25 μm, with high repeatability and at low cost. The system is able to record transverse magnetic field intensities as a function of the probe's position in real time and has been used to measure the magnetic field of the MIR and THz undulator. Herein, the components, construction, and test results of the system are described.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
