摘要：

In this article we describe a simple SQUID magnetometer system useful for the magnetic characterization of high temperature superconductors. The system employs a commercial rf SQUID probe with associated electronics located in a He-4 gas exchange cryostat. The system is equipped with a copper coil dc magnet for fields up to 50 Gauss. The cryostat is surrounded by a mu-metal shield that keeps the remanent field to less than 20 mGauss. The apparatus has been used extensively to measure both the superconducting transition temperature and width as well as the relative quantities of magnetic flux expulsion and exclusion. It has therefore served as an important first step in the evaluation of sample quality.
