We have developed high-critical-temperature radio-frequency Super conducting QUantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) with step-edge grain-boundary Josephson junctions and large flux focusers. These planar devices were fabricated from epitaxial YBa2Cu3O7 films and operated in the magnetometer and first-order gradiometer configurations while immersed in liquid nitrogen. At the temperature of 77K, we have attained a magnetic field resolution for the magnetometer better than 200 fT/Hz1/2 down to less than 1 Hz, i.e., over the low signal frequency range important for medical diagnostics. The results to date show a high promise for biomagnetic diagnostics. For the first time, we recorded the evoked responses from human brains using a high-temperature magnetometer and a first-order electronic gradiometer channel simultaneously. These results were obtained in a magnetically shielded room. An improvement in the magnetic field resolution by another order of magnitude is possible and probable.

我们已经开发了具有阶跃边缘晶界约瑟夫森结和大通量聚焦器的高临界温度射频超导量子干涉器件 (squid)。这些平面器件是由外延YBa2Cu3O7薄膜制成的,并在磁力计和一阶梯度仪配置下工作,同时浸入液氮中。在77K的温度下,我们已经获得了比200 fT/Hz1/2低至小于1Hz的磁力计的磁场分辨率,即在对医学诊断重要的低信号频率范围内。迄今为止的结果表明,生物磁诊断具有很高的前景。我们首次同时使用高温磁力计和一阶电子梯度计通道记录了人脑的诱发反应。这些结果是在磁屏蔽室中获得的。磁场分辨率可能会提高另一个数量级。
