The base electrode of the SQUID is made of a very thin niobium layer, formed by deposition, and the tunnel barrier is oxidised onto this niobium surface.
SQUIDs are used to measure extremely tiny magnetic fields; they are currently the most sensitive such devices (magnetometers) known, with noise levels as low as 3 fT/sqrt(Hz).
The use of SQUIDs in oil prospecting, earthquake prediction and geothermal energy surveying is becoming more widespread as superconductor technology develops; they are also used as precision movement sensors in a variety of scientific applications, such as the detection of gravity waves.
