Abstract
The analysis of different types of Josephson junctions allows us to depict temperature dependences of the critical current
, the Josephson penetration depth
and main SQUID parameters. We show that a DC SQUID can operate on a broad range of temperature, with a current modulation
equal to
in the limit
. The analysis is given within the RSJ model. For this purpose, the usual DC SQUID current biasing circuit is replaced by
a voltage controlled system which detects current modulation. This voltage biasing is compatible with modulation technique
usually applied to reduce the
1/f noise level of the junctions.
