摘要：
We have developed a cryogenic two-dimensional magnetic imaging system that incorporates a sensitive dc SQUID detector. In this instrument, which we call the Scanning SQUID Microscope (SSM), a flux transformer coupled to the SQUID is scanned over the surface of a planar sample by a room temperature, stepping motor controlled manipulator with a positional resolution of about 2 mu m. With our present input coil, spatial resolution of 20 mu m and a flux sensitivity at the sample of 10(-5)Phi(0)/Hz(1/2) is attainable. This system has been specifically designed to image the vortex structure and dynamics of weakly-coupled superconductor arrays.
