In this work, we demonstrate the ability to fabricate superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) by directly writing Josephson junctions into the plane of YBa2Cu3O7-delta thin films with a focused helium ion beam. This technique allows for the control of the Josephson barrier transport properties through the single parameter, ion dose. SQUIDs written with a dose of 4 x 10(16) ions/cm(2) had metallic barrier junctions that exhibited nearly ideal electrical transport characteristics at 50K and a flux noise of 20 mu Phi 0/root Hz at 10 HZ. At higher irradiation doses, the SQUIDs had insulating barrier Josephson junctions with a quasi particle energy gap edge at 20 meV. (C) 2015 AIP Publishing LLC.
