SQUID (Superconducting Quantum Interference Device) are probes able to detect very low variations of magnetic flux: they are cold by a cryocooler to less than 50 K temperature.

By using a sofisticated decoupling system the exposition of SQUID transducers to vibrations and electromagnetic noise from a commercial cryocooler has been minimized.

 

Possible application :  NDE  analysis of aeronautical components

 

Principal achieved results :

bullet

to cool down the SQUID transducers no cryogenic liquid is used;

bullet

the performance of SQUID made by high transition temperature superconducting materials are not affected by the cooling system based on a commercial cryocooler.
