Abstract
Quantum magnetometry represents a fundamental component of quantum metrology, where trapped-ion systems have achieved pT/√Hz sensitivity in single-ion radio-frequency magnetic field measurements via dressed states based dynamical decoupling. Here we propose a scalable trapped-ion magnetometer utilizing the mixed dynamical decoupling method, combining dressed states with periodic sequences to suppress decoherence and spatial magnetic field inhomogeneity. With numerical simulations for a 10⁴ ion system with realistic experimental parameters, we demonstrate that a sensitivity of 13 fT/√Hz for the radio-frequency field could be reached. Such a sensitivity could be obtained via robust resilience to magnetic field drift noise and inhomogeneity, where coherence time could be extended to the order of several minutes on average. This method enables scalable trapped-ion magnetometry, demonstrating its potential as a robust and practical solution for advancing quantum sensing applications.
