Abstract
The SQUID magnetometer for a device for the single-channel or multi-channel measurement of very weak magnetic fields caused by at least one field source to be detected contains at least two super-conducting gradiometer loops which, with two Josephson tunnel elements form a d-c SQUID. This magnetometer should have high sensitivity with good interference suppression. At least one detection loop and at least one compensation loop are located as the gradiometer loops as well as the Josephson tunnel elements together with superconducting connecting conductors between these parts one behind the other on a three-dimensional surface of a carrier and the mutual distance between the detection loop and the compensation loop is chosen sufficiently large that the magnetic flux, also picked up by the compensation loop of the field source to be detected, amounts to at most 20% of the magnetic flux picked up by the detection loop.
