| Zusammenfassung | The superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) is a highly sensitive detector for magnetic flux or any quantity that can be efficiently converted into flux. Comprehensive overviews of the fundamentals, technology and applications of SQUIDs and SQUID systems are found in the literature. In this chapter, a short introduction into the basic function of a SQUID, its operation, and its design for magnetic field and current sensing is given. It is shown by several examples that the device is very versatile and important for a variety of applications such as biomagnetims, astronomy, low-temperature physics and metrology. Due to the focus of the book on Nb-based devices, the large field of devices with high critical temperature (high-Tc SQUIDs) will not be considered here. |
