The determination of their critical current density in the whole range of the temperature below Tc is of first importance to understand the physical processes occurring in superconducting films. We describe here a technique suitable for…
We describe sensitive magnetometry using lumped-element resonators fabricated from a superconducting thin film of NbTiN. Taking advantage of the large kinetic inductance of the superconductor, we demonstrate a continuous resonance frequency…
Atom interferometers provide exquisite measurements of the properties of non-inertial frames. While atomic interactions are typically detrimental to good sensing, efforts to harness entanglement to improve sensitivity remain tantalizing.…
We demonstrate, both theoretically and experimentally, that thin dirty superconductor-normal metal bilayer with resistivity of normal metal $\rho_N$ much smaller than normal-state resistivity of superconductor $\rho_S$ has unique…
Atom interferometers offer excellent sensitivity to gravitational and inertial signals but have limited dynamic range. We introduce a scheme that improves on this trade-off by a factor of 50 using composite fringes, obtained from sets of…
Persistent current is a small but perpetual electric current that flows in metallic rings in the absence of any applied source. We compute the persistent currents of one-dimensional disordered metallic rings of interacting electrons in the…
A custom-developed magneto-mechanical resonator (MMR) for wireless pressure measurement is investigated for potential applications in process engineering. The MMR sensor utilises changes in the resonance frequency caused by pressure on a…
Typical persistent current ($I_{typ}$) in a normal metal ring with disorder due to random grain boundaries and rough edges is calculated microscopically. If disorder is due to the rough edges, a ballistic current $I_{typ}\simeq e v_F/L$ is…
We report the design and operation of a versatile tunnel diode oscillator for high sensitivity (50 ppb) measurements of the magnetic susceptibility of samples over a wide temperature range (1.7-100 K) that can be used with a simple liquid…
Torque magnetometry is a key method to measure the magnetic anisotropy and quantum oscillations in metals. In order to resolve quantum oscillations in sub-millimeter sized samples, piezo-electric micro-cantilevers were introduced. In the…
Diamonds are very promising candidates for the neutron diagnostics in harsh environments such as fusion reactor. In the first place this is because of their radiation hardness, exceeding that of Silicon by an order of magnitude. Also, in…

A scheme of an ultra-sensitive magnetometer in the cavity quantum electromagnonics where the intracavity microwave mode coupled to a magnonic mode via magnetic dipole interaction is proposed. It is shown that by driving both magnonic and…
Using the extraordinary sensitivity of Andreev interferometers to the superconducting phase difference associated with currents, we measure the persistent current quantum states in superconducting loops interrupted by Josephson junctions.…
We propose four different mechanisms responsible for paramagnetic or diamagnetic persistent currents in normal metal rings and determine the circumstances for change of the current from paramagnetic to diamagnetic ones and {\it vice versa}.…
