Abstract

A commercially available SQUID (Superconducting QUantum Interference Device) DC magnetometer is often limited by its relatively high temperature (≥ 1.9 K) and low magnetic field (≤ 7 T) operating environment. The need for the lower temperature and higher field DC magnetization measurements keeps growing as more materials show interesting physical phenomena with relevant energy scales that require millikelvin temperatures. To meet these needs we have developed a SQUID DC magnetometer which operates in the top loading dilution refrigerator of a 16 T superconducting magnet. An essential part of this low temperature and high field SQUID magnetometer is a specialized probe which can adapt the SQUID electronics and low friction mechanical sample shaft. The details of magnetometer probe and preliminary testing results are described in this paper.
