Description

Development of a magnetic measurement system for investigation of ferromagnetic-superconducting phase of uranium compounds is reported. The system consists of two kinds of magnetic sensors: One is a Hall-effect sensor which is used to measure large ferromagnetic signal from the sample, and the other is superconducting-quantum-interference-device (SQUID) sensor, which is used to detect much smaller signal due to superconducting-shielding current. The system allows us to investigate both ferromagnetic and superconducting properties in a single experiment. Since one of the uranium compounds, UGe2 becomes the ferromagnetic superconductor only in high pressure, the system was installed to a piston-cylinder-type pressure cell. (author)
