Abstract:We have developed and investigated a thin-film Hall sensor coupled with a high-T C superconducting antenna structure. In this paper we present a theoretical model from which we can derivate the criteria for the layout and the technological realization of the sensor system. The model describes the improvement in the sensitivity of the magnetometer system by a superposition of the external field and an inductive incoupling of a field generated from the superconducting antenna. Based on the theoretical results it… Show more
“…Compared to the work of Schmidt et al [46] doped Si has a higher Hall coefficient compared to Bi. This is beneficial since the sensitivity of the Hall sensor is linearly dependent on the Hall coefficient.…”

“…Due to the local high current density the magnetic field in the vicinity of the constriction is also increased and that is where a sensor can be placed. Dependent on the sensitive direction of the sensor (in plane or perpendicular) the sensor can be placed on top of, or next to the constriction [46][47][48][49][50]. Note that both possible sensor positions are displayed in figure 1.3b).…”

“…The effective field on the sensor B y,eff is given by the integral of the field over the width of the sensors: we assume a strip with width 2s from −s to s as displayed in figure 3.3 carrying a I scr homogeneously distributed over the cross section of the strip. The field next to the strip B y (z) is [46]:…”
