Popis: | We have developed a technique to quantitatively image the magnetic field above a magnetic specimen using a modified magnetic force microscope (MFM). The technique depends on the nonlinear response of a magnetically soft MFM tip to the sample field and to an externally applied field, similar in principle to fluxgate magnetometry. We demonstrate the technique with high resolution, quantitative images of the magnetic field above a sample of longitudinal recording media. The magnetic field resolution is on the order of 1 Oe, with sub‐100 nm spatial resolution comparable to standard MFM techniques. |
