Detection of vector magnetic fields at nanoscale dimensions is an outstanding problem in fields ranging from fundamental physics and material sciences to practical applications in biological imaging ...

Welcome to Part 1 of our series on vector magnetic fields in dipole–dipole interactions! In this tutorial, we break down the fundamentals of calculating magnetic fields generated by interacting ...

One of the common modes of scanning probe microscopy (SPM) is Magnetic force microscopy (MFM). As indicated by the name, SPM is used to map magnetic properties. On the nanoscale, MFM probes local ...

A standard single frequency AFM is comprised of a boron-doped silicon (Si) or silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4) cantilever with a length of a few micrometers and a single crystal diamond tip at the bottom of ...

In MFM, a magnetic-coated AFM probe interacts with magnetic field gradients from the sample, causing detectable forces on the probe's cantilever. To focus on magnetic interactions, MFM is often ...

This activity is part of the Science Friday Sun Camp collection! The Sun generates an incredible amount of energy, energy that you can see and feel as light and heat. Other forms of energy from the ...

An atomically thin material unites opposing magnetic forces and cuts memory device energy use by tenfold, opening new possibilities in the future of computing. Researchers at Chalmers University of ...
