Hall probes: physics and application to magnetometry
نویسندگان
چکیده
This lecture aims to present an overview of the properties of Hall effect devices. Descriptions of the Hall phenomenon, a review of the Hall effect device characteristics and of the various types of probes are presented. Particular attention is paid to the recent development of three-axis sensors and the related techniques to cancel the offsets and the planar Hall effect. The lecture introduces the delicate problem of the calibration of a threedimensional sensor and ends with a section devoted to magnetic measurements in conventional beam line magnets and undulators.

Assessing composition gradients in multifilamentary superconductors by means of magnetometry methods
We present two magnetometry-based methods suitable for assessing gradients in the critical temperature and hence the composition of multifilamentary superconductors: AC magnetometry and Scanning Hall Probe Microscopy. The novelty of the former technique lies in the iterative evaluation procedure we developed, whereas the strength of the latter is the direct visualization of the temperature depe...
متن کاملStudy on structural, luminescence properties and Hall Effect of SnO2 nanoparticles obtained by a Co-precipitation technique
In this paper, we report the synthesis of tin oxide (SnO2) nanoparticles by co-precipitation technique. The structural, surface morphology, thermal and optical properties of the SnO2 samples were analysed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectrum, thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA/DT...

| The magnetic fields generated by spins and currents provide a unique window into the physics of correlated-electron materials and devices. First proposed only a decade ago, magnetometry based on the electron spin of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) defects in diamond is emerging as a platform that is excellently suited for probing condensed matter systems; it can be operated from cryogenic temperatures ...
متن کاملA study on the dependence of DC electrical properties and nanostructure of Cu thin films on film thickness
This paper reports the correlation between film thickness, nanostructure and DC electrical properties of copper thin films deposited by PVD method on glass substrate. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used for crystallography and morphology investigation, respectively. Resistivity was measured by four point probe instrument, while a Hall effects measurement system w...
متن کاملImaging and magnetometry of switching in nanometer-scale iron particles
The reversal mechanisms in arrays of nanometer-scale ~,40 nm diameter! iron particles are studied by low-temperature Hall magnetometry and room-temperature magnetic force microscopy. Rotation of the net array magnetization at low temperatures ~20 K! occurs by both reversible and irreversible modes, the latter revealed by Barkhausen jumps. Spatially resolved measurements at room temperature show...
