For a superconductive quantum interference device (SQUID) with rather large loop inductance for a single flux quantum, store–restore operation of flux quanta has been examined by external current pulses. To sense the stored flux quanta, the device includes another directly coupled SQUID as a magnetometer. Both of the coplanar type dc SQUIDs have been composed of Josephson junctions made by the narrow-focused ion beam irradiation technique in single-layer NdBa2Cu3O7−δ superconducting films. The SQUID has a critical current of 375 μA and an inductive parameter (βL) of 32. The number of stored flux quanta is controlled by the pulse signal height and the input terminal, but not by the number of pulses.
