Abstract
We have fabricated DyBaCuO DC SQUIDs by MBE growth on MgO substrates c ontaining 45 degrees step-edge Josephson junctions, They showed RSJ-li ke current-Voltage characteristics and periodic modulation of Voltage aroused by an applied magnetic field at 77K. The flux resolution of th e 1.9mm square washer SQUID was measured to 3x10(-4) Phi(0)/Hz(1/2) at 1Hz, which corresponds to a magnetic field sensitivity of 14pT/Hz(1/2 ). Effective flux capture areas were investigated for varying SQUID si ze of washer and hole.
