| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We aimed to measure magnetic signals of electron energy loss spectroscopy from real materials. Our measurement scheme require constant sample thickness of 50 nm for 100 nm x 100 nm area; we tried to prepare the required dimensions of the ferromagnetic metal films grown on a MgO single crystal. Because MgO and the metal films bonded tightly, we could not prepare the sample with the sufficient dimensions for the magnetic signal measurement. We prepared TEM specimens of more general metals and ceramics by a new instrument of ion milling, showing significant magnetic signals. We suggest that a combination of focused ion beam technique and low accelerating voltage ion-milling could thin the MgO plane satisfactorily to measure the magnetic signals of the ferromagnetic metal films.
