  • Abstract
    In this paper, we describe cantilever sensor which should be used to improve the control of the thyristor rectifier of the power source to get constant magnetic fields during the pulse. Due to quasi-static conditions induction coils are not applicable because they mainly detect the higher harmonics and have zero sensitivity at DC-fields. For measuring the magnetic fields the bending of a U-shaped Si-cantilever is used.
