Abstract :
The advantages gained by a reduction in feature size towards the sub-micrometre or nanometre scale have opened the way to new applications for SQUlDs. We describe our work to employ sub-micron or nanoscale SQUIDs for single particle detection and spectroscopy using a novel inductive superconducting transition edge technique
