A self-compensating sample holder, suitable for making precise measurements of the magnetic moments of very small samples in SQUID magnetometers, has been developed. The design calculations for this holder are outlined, and its observed performance is described. The compensated holder exhibits a signal whch is only 1.5% of the signal from a noncompensated holder.
