The properties of a physical system only exist in relation to its environment. This thesis presents the development of a novel spin qubit scanning probe microscope operating over a wide range of environmental conditions. The qubit, which sits at the heart ...
Atomic force microscopy (AFM), a member of the scanning probe microscopy (SPM) family, holds a unique position as a nano-characterization instrument in the fields of physics, chemistry, and biology. Its ability to provide atomic resolution and operate in v ...
Compressed sensing applied to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allows to reduce the scanning time by enabling images to be reconstructed from highly undersampled data. In this paper, we tackle the problem of designing a sampling mask for an arbitrary recon ...
This thesis presents a combined experimental and theoretical study of the classical and quantum magnetization dynamics in single magnetic adatoms and molecules, and on the classical and quantum coherent control thereof. First, a detailed description of the ...
The magnetic force microscope (MFM) is an established experimental tool for imaging stray fields with high spatial resolution and sensitivity. The MFM contrast can however contain contributions from the sample topography, variations in the surface Kelvin p ...
We investigate spin dynamics of microstates in artificial spin ice (ASI) in Ni81Fe19 nanomagnets arranged in an interconnected kagome lattice using microfocus Brillouin light scattering, broadband ferromagnetic resonance, magnetic force microscopy, x-ray p ...
In this work, we report on the integration of an atomic force microscope (AFM) into a helium ion microscope (HIM). The HIM is a powerful instrument, capable of imaging and machining of nanoscale structures with sub-nanometer resolution, while the AFM is a ...
Scanning Near-field Optical Microscopy (SNOM) technique enables to overcome Abbe diffraction limit of far-field optics as well as to obtain simultaneously optical and topographical images. While the optical resolution of the method is limited by the apertu ...
Magnetic resonance imaging is widely used in medical diagnosis to obtain anatomical details of the human body in a non-invasive way. Clinical MR scanners typically operate at a static magnetic field strength (B0) of 1.5T or 3T. However, going to higher fie ...
Nanofluidic systems offer a huge potential for discovery of new molecular transport and chemical phenomena that can be employed for future technologies. Herein, we report on the transport behavior of surface-reactive compounds in a nanometer-scale flow of ...
