By using a cryogenic current comparator with a ferromagnetic core, optimum matching for high-source resistances of up to about 400 kΩ for a commercially available rf SQUID is achieved. This extends the use of SQUID instruments considerably, especially for applications where the source resistance exceeds 10−1 Ω.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
