Popis: A novel miniature superconducting quantum interference device magnetometer with direct readout electronics has been developed. A high flux-to-voltage transfer factor of up to 2500 μV/Φ0 is achieved without additional positive feedback (Φ0 is the flux quantum). A flux resolution of 8×10−7 Φ0/Hz1/2, corresponding to a magnetic moment sensitivity of approximately 2×10−20 A m2/Hz1/2, has been measured. This magnetometer can be used to study the dynamic magnetization properties (including nuclear magnetic resonance and magnetic resonance imaging) of micron and submicron size particles and for high-resolution surface magnetometry.
