Abstract
We present a theoretical study on the dynamical properties of three-dimensional arrays of Josephson junctions. Our results indicate that such superconducting networks represent highly sensitive 3D-SQUIDs having some major advantages in comparison with conventional planar SQUIDs. The voltage response function of 3D-SQUIDs is directly related to the vector-character of external electromagnetic fields. The theory developed here allows the three-dimensional reconstruction of a detected external field including phase information about the field variables. Applications include the design of novel magnetometers, gradiometers and particle detectors.
