Abstract
A vibrating normal pick-up coil coupled to a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer as a nondestructive testing system was studied. The vibrating normal pick-up coil measures the magnetic field gradient at a point. Output of the SQUID magnetometer is lock-in detected at the vibration frequency. The frequency of an excitation magnetic field can be set low to detect deep structural flaws. The use of a normal coil vibrated at 20 kHz with output voltage amplified by a low-noise amplifier enabled detection of a cylindrical defect in an aluminum plate with an excitation magnetic field at 40 Hz.
