Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We designed a vector sensor for sensing magnetic fields by using a 3-dimensional (3D) scanning superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) microscope. A vector senor consists of three SQUID sensors on the same chip and each SQUID sensor has a pick-up coil for X, Y, or Z direction. Three coils with readout circuits are configured in orthogonal with each other to measure the magnetic field vector. The critical current density Jc of a Josephson junction (JJ) is 320 A/cm2 and the minimum critical current Ic of JJ becomes 12uA. We use an XYZ piezo-driven scanner for controlling the position of the pick-up coils in the range of 5 mm x 5 mm at low temperatures. The room-temperature electronics has the bandwidth of 6 MHz. The software for the image processing of the scanning SQUID microscope has been improved so that the estimated magnetic flux after process is close to the true value. A function to calculate the magnetic flux inside an area on the image has been newly provided.
