Abstract
The authors describe a balanced detection technique that suppresses undesirable effects due to residual signals for the detection of DC and low-frequency magnetic fields with intermetric fiber-optic sensors using metallic glass. The detection technique utilizes a square-wave magnetic field modulation that translates the residual signal outside of the detection bandwidth. Experimental results are presented that show effective suppression of the residual signal.<>
