Abstract

The authors have developed a novel type of magnetic spectroscopy which relies on an integrated multichip SQUID (superconducting quantum interference devices) microsusceptometer to obtain nearly quantum-limited spin resolution. The susceptometer, including two DC SQUIDs, pickup loops, and field coils, was fabricated using VLSI technology to achieve an unprecedented scale of magnetic sensitivity, optimized for the study of microscopic samples or thin layers. Furthermore, in combination with an ultrafast pulsed laser system, measurements can be made at picosecond time scales, providing an understanding of the dynamics of the magnetic phenomena in these materials and the effects of quantum confinement on magnetic behavior. >
