Plasmon‐Tunable Tip Pyramids: Monopole Nanoantennas for Near‐Field Scanning Optical Microscopy

Reversible Tip-induced Structural Modifications in Scanning Tip Microscopy

Calculations of the interaction between a magnetic tip of an atomic force microscope with a magnetic surface using the non-collinear extension of the Alexander-Anderson model are described. The mechanism and rate of thermally activated magnetic transitions in a cluster of atoms at the tip is investigated. The results are compared with experimental data and found to be in good agreement with mea...

Scanning Optical Microscopy

The term used in a title is rather uncertain. In microscopy the recent progress of optical methods resulted in the appearance of a large number of techniques many of which can be considered as classical. However, the purpose of this chapter is not to review the wide capabilities of optical microscopy but define some terms which will be used further for the explanation of a confocal microscope p...

Scanning hall probe microscopy technique for investigation of magnetic properties

Scanning Hall Probe Microscopy (SHPM) is a scanning probe microscopy technique developed to observe and image magnetic fields locally. This method is based on application of the Hall Effect, supplied by a micro hall probe attached to the end of cantilever as a sensor.  SHPM provides direct quantitative information on the magnetic state of a material and can also image magnetic induction under a...
