Scanning NV Microscopy (SNVM) enables capture of surface magnetic fields at the nanoscale. It provides quantitative magnetic field maps with nanotesla sensitivity, allowing direct measurement of field strength and vector orientation (Bx, By, Bz). SNVM utilizes an optically read Nitrogen Vacancy (NV) center in diamond, which is ideal for fragile or highly responsive magnetic systems, providing richer information about magnetic textures and stray fields.
Capabilities
- LT-SNVM is compatible with ambient and cryogenic (2.5K) environment
- AFM Measurements: The AFM works in frequency modulation mode for surface imaging
- Dual-Iso B: perform images on the fluorescence-related modes
- ODMR: The optically detected magnetic resonance measurement is typically used after the focus on the NV pillar in the QuantileverTM is achieved and the alignment with the MW antenna is done. This type of measurement is very important to perform Iso-B and quantitative magnetic measurements
Applications
- Magnetic nanostructures and spintronics applications
- Domain wall analysis, exotic magnetic textures
- Ferromagnets, antiferromagnets, multiferroics
- 2D materials
