Abstract: An optical-fiber atomic light-filtering apparatus comprising an optical-fiber coupling focusing collimating mirror, a first polarizing optical fiber, a first permanent magnetic ring, a pure iron frame shaped like the Chinese character “”, a heat preservation box, a first capillary atomic cell, an armored twisted-pair heating wire, a second permanent magnetic ring, a second polarizing optical fiber, a thermostat, a cable, a third permanent magnetic ring, a temperature sensor, a second capillary atomic cell, a fourth permanent magnetic ring, a third polarizing optical fiber and a photoelectric detector. The two pairs of permanent magnetic rings are matched with the pure iron frame shaped like the Chinese character “” to provide magnetic fields for the two capillary atomic cells working in the same temperature environment; a polarizing plane changes after interaction between a weak signal light and atoms.

Abstract: An inert gas nucleus channel device comprising a magnetic resonance control system, a radio frequency generator, an RF amplifier and AD converter, a frequency synthesizer, a first mixer, a second power amplifier, a second T/R switch, an inert gas nucleus coil, a second pre-amplifier and a second mixer. A magnetic resonance imaging method is also disclosed. The method controls an increase or decrease in a frequency of a pulse or echo signal excited by a radio-frequency signal, implementing magnetic resonance imaging using hyperpolarized inert gases (such as xenon, helium, and krypton), making it possible to apply MRI to lungs and brains using the hyperpolarized inert gases, and expanding the probing range of MRI. The inert gas nucleus channel device is simple in structure and easy to operate and upgrades a hydrogen nucleus magnetic resonance imaging instrument to become a multi-nuclei MRI system using the hyperpolarized inert gases.
