Abstract

We developed open type magnetic shields for biomagnetic measurement combining high Tc superconducting cylinders and high-permeability cylinders. The size was i.d.220mm × o.d.310mm × length 650mm. High Tc superconducting cylinders were fabricated by spray-coated BiSrCaCuO thick films on Ag substrates. High-permeability cylinders were made of Ni-based alloy. The magnetic shielding effects were measured by the attenuation ratio of the inside magnetic fields and the external magnetic fields which were applied to axial and transverse direction. The transverse magnetic shielding effect of the high Tc superconducting cylinders was 7 × l0-2. The axial magnetic shielding effect of the high-permeability cylinders was 2×10”2. The magnetic shielding effects of the combination were under 7×10-4 regardless of the direction of external magnetic fields. Open type magnetic shields are easy to put investigated objects and SQUID sensors.
