摘要：

Superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) can have excellent spin sensitivity depending on their magnetic flux noise, pickup loop diameter, and distance from the sample. We report a family of scanning SQUID susceptometers with terraced tips that position the pickup loops 300 nm from the sample. The 600 nm-2 mu m pickup loops, defined by focused ion beam, are integrated into a 12-layer optical lithography process allowing flux-locked feedback, in situ background subtraction and optimized flux noise. These features enable a sensitivity of similar to 70 electron spins per root hertz at 4 K.
