Summary

DIGITAL FEEDBACK LOOPS FOR DIRECT CURRENT SQUIDS USING PULSE-RATE MODULATION ARE PROPOSED AND INVESTIGATED BY SIMULATIONS AND MEASUREMENTS. THE DESIGN OF A DIRECT CURRENT SQUID MAGNETOMETER YIELDS A SIMULATED ENERGY RESOLUTION OF ABOUT 11 H (H = PLANCK'S CONSTANT) WHERE ABOUT 3 H CORRESPONDS TO ADDITIONAL NOISE DUE TO THE FEEDBACK LOOP. MEASUREMENTS AT JOSEPHSON SAMPLER PROTOTYPE CHIPS SHOWED THAT THE DIGITAL FEEDBACK LOOP IS VERY STABLE AND FAST ENOUGH TO OBTAIN A FLICKER-FREE DISPLAY ON AN OSCILLOSCOPE. AN INTEGRATION OF SENSOR AND FEEDBACK LOOP ON ONE OR SEVERAL CHIPS WITH JOSEPHSON JUNCTIONS SEEMS FEASIBLE.
