Motivation Nanobridge SQUID Magnetometer: Spin Physics: – Dynamics – Coherence times w/ conc. – Spin-Substrate Interaction Applications: – Nanoscale ESR/NMR NV Centers in Diamond Cr 7 Ni (S=1/2) Bi in Si-28
3
What is a SQUID? Superconducting QUantum Interference Device
4
S S I ( ) Insulator (tunnel junction) Constriction (nanobridge junction) Josephson Junctions L J and I 0 relation is more complex.
5
DC SQUID Loop interrupted by two Josephson Junctions. SQUID transduces magnetic flux to phase modulation. o 123 Tunnel Junction DC SQUID L J >> L LOOP I C (Φ) L J (Φ)

Readout Scheme
9
Microwave and Cryogenic Setup
10
Detector Sensitivity Low flux noise: 0.03 μΦ 0 /Hz 1/2 Bandwidth > 10 MHz Ideal for “single” spin magnetometry
11
Bulk Spin Sensitivity Implanted Spins: 10 4 Bi atoms/ μ m 2 at 40 nm peak depth Φ loop (DC) ~ 27 μΦ 0 SNR ~ 3.4 100 KHz bandwidth (10 μs integration time) Bulk NV Centers: Plane of 5.5x10 16 NV Centers/cm^3, 1 μ m above Φ loop (DC) ~ 7 μΦ 0 SNR ~ 1
12
Single Bohr Magneton Sensitivity L = 1 μm D = 1 to 10 3 nm Single Spin Sensitivity: 180 nm at 1 Hz BW 2 nm at 10 kHz BW
13
Conclusion Nanobridge SQUIDs are a good candidate for detecting small #s of spins Next Steps: Continue looking for signature of spins Vary spin density and measure relaxation times Attempt pulsed excitation and control
