In this thesis, the magnetic and structural properties of layered epitaxial film systems and clusters are presented. A main achievement is the investigation of the direct correlation between magnetism and structural or morphological details of ultrathin fi ...
We have fabricated curved-line ferromagnetic nanostructures on membranes for transmission electron microscopy investigations of the equilibrium magnetic spin configurations. The magnetic elements were fabricated using electron-beam lithography and a lift-o ...
NOVELTY - The microscope has a housing (12), and two actuators (14, 16) are arranged in an opposed push-pull configuration that is coupled to the housing. A support (22) is coupled to the housing and to one of the two actuators at a position that is spaced ...
During this project, ultrasensitive cantilevers designed for nuclear magnetic resonance applications were fabricated and characterised. The cantilevers are 500, 340 or 200 μm long, 10 or 20 μm wide and 500 or 340 nm thick and integrate a thin film of cobal ...
Here we present a scanning probe microscopy method that allows for the identification of regions of different polarity (i.e. hydrophilicity) in thin organic films. This technique is based on the analysis of the difference between phase images generated at ...
Periodic arrays of elongated cobalt islands exchange coupled to continuous Permalloy thin films were fabricated using silicon nitride stencil masks and the magnetic spin configurations during magnetization reversal were studied with photoemission electron ...
The general idea of Nanotechnology is not new – it has been studied since Nobel laureate Richard Feynman outlined the idea in a speech in 1959 – but it's only recently that the progress carried out in the various fields of material, optic, physic and engin ...
Anewmicrosystem with the ability to detect magnetic microstructures based on the non-invasive Hall principle is presented. The micro-Hall plate embedded in the microsystem and scaled down to the physical limits of the employedCMOStechnology has an active a ...
Ultrathin Fe films on Pt substrates have been investigated under ultrahigh vacuum conditions by scanning tunneling microscopy, low energy electron diffraction, magneto-optical Kerr effect, x-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements, and Kerr microscopy ...
The confinement of a spinon liberated by doping two-dimensional frustrated quantum antiferromagnets with a nonmagnetic impurity or a mobile hole is investigated. For a static vacancy, an intermediate behavior between complete deconfinement (kagome) and str ...
