ABSTRACT:
Devices and analytical techniques are disclosed for measuring spatial profiles of complex permeability and conductivity of a material by multiple wavenumber interrogations. Coil array structures are disclosed which define a number of different fundamental wavelengths (or wavenumbers). Spatially periodic interrogation signals (of temporal frequency ".omega.") from the coil array structures are attenuated by varying degrees in the material undergoing analysis, depending on the wavenumber ("k"), thereby permitting the derivation of composite complex permeability/conductivity profile.
