We propose to analyze the performance of low frequency super conducting magnetic field measuring systems employing thin film elements. Based upon this analysis, we will develop thin film designs for: 1. Thin film pickup loops for magnetic field gradient measurement; 2. Thin film dc squid, and 3. Integrated gradient measuring system consisting of a thin film pickup coil and m in film squid on a single substrate. The result of the project will be the production of designs that can be fabricated and evaluated in later project phases. The proposed work will be a joint effort between 2g enterprises, mountain view, California (acting as the prime contractor) and hypres, Inc., Elmsford, new york.
