A differential B-dot probe is designed to diagnose the pulsed magnetic field on the Shenguang-II high-power laser facility. Differential B-dot pair is processed to cancel out common mode noise. On the Shenguang-II facility, a laser pulse with 0.5 kJ energy and the pulse width of 1.0 ns is shot onto a copper planar target, which generates plasma and a pulsed circular self-generated magnetic field. A negative exponential power law between the magnetic field and the distance away from targeting focus is confirmed by the B-dot pair. The negative exponent is – 1.75. Near the laser focus, a magnetic field approximating megagauss can be expected.
