Abstract

Magnetic particle spectroscopy is an innovative method for characterizing magnetic nanoparticles with potential
medical applications. Traditional methods for instrumentation face challenges such as labor-intensive coil
manufacturing, high costs, high tolerances and setup time. This study introduces a new approach using additive
manufacturing to create rectangular nested coils, enhancing performance and reducing production complexity.
The coils, printed with conductive and dielectric inks, allow for modular configurations and improved sensitivity.
Results demonstrate a sufficient signal-to-noise ratio and effective cancellation of excitation frequencies. This
presented technique addresses issues of fine-tuning and manufacturing discrepancies while enabling modular and
flexible setups tailored to researchers’ specific needs.
