Problems solved by technology

At present, Josephson junctions with a size of sub-micron scale have been prepared in the world, and the size of the Josephson junction has been reduced from the typical order of several microns to the sub-micron scale. The submicron Josephson junction developed by Leo et. et al. (N.De Leo, M.Fretto, A.Sosso, E.Enrico, L.Boarino, V.Lacquaniti, Sub-micron SNIS Josephson junctions for metrological application, Physics Procedia36( 2012), 105–109) have greatly improved its ability to resist magnetic field interference, but the micromachining process for preparing small-sized Josephson junctions requires strict requirements, such as high difficulty in pattern preparation and device etching, and the magnetic field The influence on small-sized junctions still exists, so the small-sized Josephson junction needs to be further improved in terms of magnetic field interference suppression

Abstract

The invention relates to an SQUID structure preventing magnetic field interference in non-magnetic shielding environment. The structure is characterized in that an annular superconductive wall is manufactured around a Josephson junction, the superconductive wall surrounds the Josephson junction and achieves a micro magnetic shielding function, and accordingly interference of an imposed magnetic field on the Josephson junction is suppressed. The height of the superconductive wall is larger than the thickness of an insulating layer of the Josephson junction. The annular superconductive wall based on a superconductive film material is manufactured around the Josephson junction serving as the core structure of an SQUID, and the annular superconductive wall can effectively shield the imposed magnetic field from entering the Josephson junction, so that influences of the imposed magnetic field on the Josephson junction are effectively prevented, and stability of SQUID parameters is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a structure of a SQUID device for suppressing magnetic field interference in a non-magnetic shielding environment, more precisely, it can effectively prevent the interference of external magnetic fields on the stability of SQUID sensor parameters. The invention belongs to the field of superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID). Background technique [0002] Superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) is a superconducting quantum device based on the Josephson effect and flux quantization principles. Its basic structure is to insert two Josephson junctions in a superconducting ring. SQUID is currently the most Sensitive magnetic flux sensor, the magnetic flux noise of a typical SQUID device is in μΦ 0 / Hz 1 / 2 magnitude (1Φ 0 =2.07×10 -15 Wb), its magnetic field noise is at fT / Hz 1 / 2 Magnitude (1fT=1×10 -15 T), due to its extremely high sensitivity, SQUID devices have great application potential in biomagnet...
