Abstract
RF SQUID behaviour has been observed at 77 K in YBaCuO thick films prepared by screen printing technique. A hole shunted with a microbridge type of geometry is patterned manually for observing rf SQUID behaviour. Flux noise spectrum is also studied and it is found to depend on the quality of the film. The spectral density of the flux noise in the white noise region is 1.7×10−3 Φ0/√Hz at 77 K.
