摘要: Abstract In this study, the effects of weak links between grains ceramic superconductors on sensitivity a DC magnetic field sensor were examined. The evolution 2nd harmonic signal strength, which determines magnetometer sensitivity, with critical current density J c was especially analyzed. values adjusted by synthesis Y-123 at different calcination temperatures. It observed that strength 2f increases as temperature and so, increases. This is contrary to common expectations. Our experiments have shown changes quite linearly in wide dynamic range (10 −4 10 −9  T) sample calcined 950 °C. ways measuring fields low 1 nT are described paper.
