Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The magnetic domain structure can be observed easily by conventional scanning electron microscopy. However, this classic method has not been used widely because it allows observations of only limited portions of the magnetic domains. We have developed a visualization technique for the magnetic domain structure using an annular electron detector. We showed that the whole magnetic domain structure is quickly and easily acquired by our technique. Our technique has the advantage of simultaneously evaluating the magnetic domain structure and various microstructural properties, such as morphology, crystallographic orientation, and chemical composition. Therefore, we expect that the technique will be widely applicable to many magnetic materials and devices in both academic and engineering fields.
