It has been found that when superconducting quantum interference device magnetometers operate in a geomagnetic field environment, its output will occasionally show small momentary jumps with the change of the external magnetic field, which seriously affects the measurement accuracy of the geomagnetic field and needs to be eliminated. A magnetic flux jump model called the parasitic superconducting ring model was built to explain the causes of these small jumps, and Helmholtz coils were set up to study the jump and verify this model in the laboratory. The experimental results showed that the position and amplitude of the jumps were consistent with the model. It is believed that this model can guide the design of superconducting chips in geophysical applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Direct current superconducting quantum interference device (dc SQUID) can be regarded as a hybrid system with two nonlinear Josephson currents driving a linear network consists of conventional resistors (R), inductors (L), and capacitors (C). There must be LC resonances inside the SQUID loop with influences on its static current-voltage characteristics. To study the working principle of the LC resonance, we build an equivalent dynamic system model transformed directly from the circuit equations of dc SQUID. With dynamic system analyses in both dc and alternating current (ac) domains, we derive the analytical expressions of the resonance point with only the RLC circuit parameters. The analytical derivation proves that the LC resonance inside a symmetrical dc SQUID with resonance frequency ω = 1/√LC results in the flux modulation suppression with I–V curves concentrated on one resonance point. Based on those mathematical expressions, the resonance point is easily indentified from the measured I–V curves, and can be utilized for practical SQUID parameters characterization.

Practical superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) have been developed into multiloop hybrid electric circuits with Josephson junctions and normal elements such as resistor, inductor and capacitor. To find a common circuit analysis and simulation method for different types of SQUID hybrid circuits consist of both superconducting and normal components, we introduce a mesh-current method, which can derive both the general system model and uniform circuit equations directly from the equivalent circuit. The mesh-current method is demonstrated in the simulation of a SQUID additional positive feedback circuit. The numerical simulation results are presented and verified with the measurements. Compared with the conventional nodal analysis method, the mesh-current method is excellent in dealing with the relations including external flux, self and mutual inductances in multiloop hybrid circuit analysis; its final circuit equations directly exhibit the physical theorems; its general system model reveals the quantum interference mechanism inside SQUID circuits, and is applicable for further dynamics studies.

Nonlinearity with multiple working points limits the practical applications of a two-stage superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) readout circuit, which is promising for low-noise performance. To solve this problem, we proposed a simple two-stage SQUID readout circuit with two conventional dc SQUIDs improved with proportional feedback schemes, where transfer coefficient of the first-stage SQUID circuit is enhanced by additional positive feedback circuit; transfer characteristics of the second-stage SQUID circuit are linearized by an additional negative feedback circuit. Two proportional feedback schemes are cooperated together based on matching conditions to achieve both noise suppression and working point matching. Working principles were verified in experiment results. The overall transfer characteristics achieved have only one working point and are simply adjusted according to the voltage swing of an amplifier. Transfer coefficient of the first-stage SQUID circuit was raised up to 10 (20 dB), and the total flux noise of two-stage SQUID readout circuit was reduced below 1 μΦ0/√Hz, where Φ0 = 2.07 ×10−15 Wb. Our two-stage SQUID readout circuit is easy-to-operate and suited for high-performance practical SQUID systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

To implement a flux quanta counting (FQC) scheme in the wide range magnetic field measurement using a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID), we present a SQUID proportional feedback amplifier (PFA) circuit. It is a simplified version of the direct readout flux-locked loop (FLL) electronics without an integrator. It achieved a periodically repeated (with a period of 1Φ0), quasi-linear flux-to-voltage characteristics with an input range extended to 2Φ0. Its working point is reset spontaneously with 1Φ0 of flux jump caused by the over range flux input. The resultant wide range measurement is achieved by the synthesis of the PFA voltage output and the flux jumps recorded using the FQC scheme. We simulated and experimentally verified the working principles of SQUID PFA. The FQC scheme using SQUID PFA was demonstrated with measurements in both shielded and unshielded environment. SQUID PFA is simple and easy-to-operate suited for applications in the Earth's magnetic field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The SQUID Bootstrap Circuit (SBC) for direct-coupled readout of SQUID signals in voltage bias mode was recently demonstrated. In addition to the conventional dc SQUID, the SBC incorporates a shunt resistor Rs, and two coils coupled to the SQUID via mutual inductances M1 and M2. In this paper, basic equations of SBC are formulated based on its equivalent circuit model. The expression of equivalent flux noise from the preamplifier is also given. The effect of the three adjustable parameters (M1, M2 and Rs) on the characteristics of SBC and the preamplifier noise suppression are numerically simulated. The SBC combines current and voltage feedbacks in one circuit, allowing for an effective suppression of the preamplifier voltage noise through increased flux-current transfer coefficient and dynamic resistance. In contrast to other direct-coupled schemes, it offers not only a good noise performance, but also tolerance to a wide range of adjustable parameters. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

As part of the efforts to establish a reliable fabrication process of superconducting integrated circuits at Center for Excellence in Superconducting Electronics (CENSE) in China, we investigated the influences of various deposition conditions on the properties of molybdenum (Mo) thin films. Thin-film resistors were fabricated based on these films by using a lift-off process. It was found that Mo structures made from films peeled off easily from the substrate after lift-off. We have optimized the deposition conditions to grow Mo films with compressive or weakly tensile stress. Mo thin-film resistors with a sheet resistance of several ohm/square and surface roughness of less than 1 nm were successfully fabricated and were used in the fabrication of superconducting quantum interference devices and small-scale superconducting integrated circuits.

SUPERCONDUCTING quantum interference devices , *INDUCTION coils , *MINES & mineral resources - Abstract
Transient electromagnetic method (TEM) is an effective way for mineral resource prospecting if an induction coil is used as the traditional sensor. Superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) obtains excellent sensitivity at low frequency as compared to coil. Thus, the exploration depth and the accuracy of TEM can be greatly improved. However, an ultrahigh slew rate (>10 mT/s) is needed for transient primary field recording, which is a great challenge for a single high-sensitivity SQUID receiver. In this paper, two SQUIDs with different sensitivities (1.5 nT/Φ0 and 99 nT/Φ0) are employed to record the whole TEM decaying signal. The high-sensitivity SQUID (1.5 nT/Φ0) is in reset status when transmitting and is locked after tens of microseconds after transmitting has been cut off. The low-sensitivity SQUID (99 nT/Φ0) remains locked during the whole procedure with high slew rate (∼198 mT/s) to record the fast-switching transmitting field. The two channel SQUID outputs are combined together to form a complete decaying curve. A field test was carried out. The decaying curve with a noise level of 100 fT@DC-25 kHz and a fast-switching field of ∼630 nT cutting off in tens of microseconds (slew rate up to ∼56 mT/s) was recorded after stacking. This dual-channel SQUID-based TEM system obtains high stability, which is useful for small transmitting loop (<50 m) configuration. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) planar gradiometer is an extremely sensitive sensor for magnetic gradient measurements. It has been shown to have potential applications for aeromagnetic detection. The major challenge when operating an aeromagnetic SQUID system in actual environment is the motion noise, including the inherent response resulting from gradiometer imbalance and from magnetic interferences. Three orthogonal reference magnetometers are usually adopted to improve the gradiometer balance. However, magnetic interference coming from the system itself also needs to be compensated. In this article, a mathematical model of the motion noise picked up by the gradiometer is derived from the traditional magnetic total field compensation method. Based on the model, the signals from the triaxial magnetometer can also be used to compensate the eddy current contribution to the magnetic interference. To verify the compensation method, a SQUID planar gradiometer system was set up and used for flight trials. The gradient field noise and imbalance of our homemade gradiometer were measured to be 100 fT/m/rt(Hz) and 2E-4 in the lab. In flight, the motion-induced peak-to-peak output of the gradiometer was reduced from 170 to about 0.1 nT/m, so that a magnetic anomaly signal of about 2 nT/m from a cargo ship was clearly recognized.

We recently presented a direct readout technique for the dc Superconducting QUantum Interference Device (SQUID) without flux modulation (FM), operated in voltage bias mode, and named it the SQUID Bootstrap Circuit (SBC). The SBC combines additional voltage and current feedbacks to minimize the room-temperature preamplifier noise. The main point of this paper is to compare the flux noise performance of the SBC readout with that of the FM scheme using a sine wave modulation signal. Several liquid-helium-cooled SQUID magnetometers with different layouts and loop inductances were characterized using these two readout schemes. Measured noise was comparable to or even lower than that measured by FM electronics. Furthermore, the SBC noise performance was evaluated as function of resistance which, when properly adjusted, permits us to nearly fulfill the critical noise suppression condition. We believe SBC to be a promising candidate for multi-channel SQUID systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
