Abstract

The features of a feedback loop in a quantum sensor with a two-frequency spin oscillator are discussed. Engineering solutions that ensure stable two-frequency oscillation and, in particular, the use of automatic gain control units and all-pass filters are considered. The results of experimental studies of oscillation modes conducted on a quantum sensor breadboard are presented for stationary and rotating bases.
