Our aim is to contribute to the better understanding of unconventional superconductors. Their superconductivity can present particular magnetic fingerprints informing us about the underlying mechanisms responsible for their properties . We have developed and run a scanning SQUID microscope in a dilution refrigerator to probe the magnetic signatures of these quantum phenomena.
We undertake this research in close collaboration with colleagues from our team, and other collaborators at NEEL, CEA Grenoble, Tohoku University, Amsterdam University…
The SQUID microscope is part of the European Mikrokelvin Platform.
