Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Magnetic force microscopy (MFM) has been widely used to observe magnetic domain structure with high-spatial resolution for various magnetic materials. However quantitative interpretation of MFM image is still difficult, because MFM technique measures magnetic field derivative, but not magnetic field. In this study, we proposed novel magnetic force microscopy which enables to measure the absolute value of magnetic field, which is useful for quantitative analysis of domain structure, by combining our previously developed near-field magnetic force microscopy with a paramagnetic or a superparamagnetic tips. We have demonstrated the possibility of measuring the absolute value of magnetic field for thick films of FePt permanent magnet by using the present microscopy with developed high-sensitivity superparamagnetic tips.
