Abstract
A system comprises a substrate having a planar surface; a first magnet configured to apply a first magnetic field parallel to the planar surface; a circuit arranged on the planar surface; and a superconducting quantum interference device, SQUID, operably linked to the circuit. The SQUID comprises a Josephson junction arranged in a superconductive loop. The superconductive loop includes a portion which extends perpendicular to the planar surface and is orientated such that the SQUID is tuneable by the first magnet. By allowing the SQUID to be tuned using a magnetic field which is parallel to the planar surface, a reduction in flux noise may be achieved. Also provided are a method of operating a SQUID, and a SQUID.
