    摘要: A method and device for field detection are provided, in which one or more gradiometers (31, 32, 33) are positioned in the field and rotated about their axes. Rotation of a single gradiometer allows an output signal of the gradiometer to be analysed in the Fourier domain, which allows particular field components to be obtained, and also separates the field signal from noise, in the frequency domain. Use of three such rotating gradiometers with non-parallel axes allows a complete magnetic field gradient tensor to be obtained with data redundancy, and can reduce crosstalk.

    摘要: The invention concerns a SQUID magnetometer comprising: a SQUID (10); means (61) for applying a predetermined bias current to said SQUID (10); means (57, 62) for detecting an output of said SQUID (10) to which said bias current is being applied; feedback means (65) for feeding the output of said SQUID (10) back to an amount of the bias current to said SQUID (10); means (64) for applying a bias magnetic field to said feedback means (65); and controls means (40) for automatically adjusting said bias magnetic field in a state that said bias current is adjusted such that an output voltage of said SQUID is at its maximum when an initial working point of said SQUID is adjusted

    摘要: The present invention provides an improved and simplified voltage step-up circuit (2) for a SQUID magnetometric sensor (1), which provides step-up of a voltage signal generated by a SQUID element (11). The SQUID element is exited by a modulated signal using the FLL method. In an example, a step-up means (22) comprises only one step-up transformer (22T) working at room temperature and an electronic amplifier (22A). The voltage signal is first stepped up by the transformer. A signal processing means (23) processes the stepped up signal with the modulation signal to output a magnetic field measurement signal (Vϕ). In another example, a bias current source (21) is also connected to terminals between SQUID element (11) and the transformer (22). A series resistor is connected between the transformer and one of the terminals. This allows a reduction in the number of terminals between the SQUID sensor (1) and the circuit (2).

    摘要: This magnetic sensor comprises a flux transformer 2 having a superconducting thin film 2f formed on a sapphire substrate 2s, and a SQUID 1 disposed on the flux transformer 2 opposite thereto. In this magnetic sensor, since the sapphire substrate 2s, which can be obtained in a large size, is used for the flux transformer 2, even when the SQUID 1 is made smaller, the magnetic flux introduced from the flux transformer 2 into the SQUID 1 can be enhanced so as to increase the effective magnetic flux capturing area, whereby the detecting performance is improved, while the manufacturing cost can be reduced due to the smaller size of the SQUID 1.
