Abstract
An apparatus and method are provided for implementing feedback control of the electropermanent magnets and also collecting information about magnetic fields emanating from a volume of interest containing a living being
Claims21
An apparatus for controlling an electropermanent magnetic field, the apparatus comprising:
- at least one control sub-module,
- at least one electropermanent sub-module,
- and at least one monitoring sub-module,
- wherein the at least one monitoring sub-module contains at least one measurement structure for measuring a magnetic field at a location of the at least one monitoring sub-module.
1 more element
The apparatus of clam 1, wherein the at least one monitoring sub-module controls adjustment of the magnetic field generated by the at least one electropermanent magnet sub-module based on the measured magnetic field.
A method of controlling a magnetic field generation, the method comprising:
- measuring a magnetic field using a spin status of at least one sample within at least one monitoring sub-module, and
- controlling the magnetic field generated by adjusting or maintaining the magnetic field based on the measured magnetic field compared to a predetermined desired magnetization state.
