    Abstract: A device for non destructive evaluation of defects in a metallic object (2) by eddy currents, comprises a field emitter (3) for emitting an alternating electromagnetic field at a first frequency fi in the neighbourhood of the metallic object (2), and a magnetoresistive sensor (1) for detecting a response signal constituted by a return electromagnetic field which is re-emitted by eddy currents induced by the alternating electromagnetic field in the metallic object (2). The device further comprises: a driving circuit (230) for driving the magnetoresistive sensor (1) by a current at a second frequency fc which is different from the first frequency fi, so that the magnetoresistive sensor (1) acts as an in situ modulator; a detector for detecting a response signal between the terminals of the magnetoresistive sensor (1); a filter for filtering the response signal detected by the magnetoresistive sensor (1) to keep either the frequency sum (fi+fc) of the first and second frequencies or the frequency difference (fi-fc) of the first and second frequencies, and a processor for processing the filtered response signal and extract eddy current information on defects in the metallic object (2).

    Abstract: The device for sensing a magnetic field comprises a closed superconducting pick-up loop (1) having a path width (d) etched out of a single layer superconducting thin film and provided with a constriction (15) having a width (w) of narrow dimension smaller than the path width (d). The closed superconducting pick-up loop (1) constitutes a flux-to-field transformer (FFDT). At least one magnetoresistive element (2) is placed on top of or below the superconducting thin film, is isolated from the superconducting thin film by a thin insulating layer and is located so that an active part of the magnetoresistive element (2) is at the location of the constriction (15) and has a width equal to or less than the width of the constriction (15). The active part of the magnetoresistive element (2) is oriented so that the bias current in this active part is directed essentially along the constriction (15), orthogonally to the width of narrow dimension.
