Magnetic force microscope, the Glossary

Index Magnetic force microscope

Magnetic force microscopy (MFM) is a variety of atomic force microscopy, in which a sharp magnetized tip scans a magnetic sample; the tip-sample magnetic interactions are detected and used to reconstruct the magnetic structure of the sample surface.[1]

Atomic force microscopy

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) or scanning force microscopy (SFM) is a very-high-resolution type of scanning probe microscopy (SPM), with demonstrated resolution on the order of fractions of a nanometer, more than 1000 times better than the optical diffraction limit. Magnetic force microscope and Atomic force microscopy are scanning probe microscopy.

Cantilever

A cantilever is a rigid structural element that extends horizontally and is unsupported at one end.

Coercivity

Coercivity, also called the magnetic coercivity, coercive field or coercive force, is a measure of the ability of a ferromagnetic material to withstand an external magnetic field without becoming demagnetized.

Faraday cage

A Faraday cage or Faraday shield is an enclosure used to block some electromagnetic fields.

Gauss (unit)

The gauss (symbol:, sometimes Gs), is a unit of measurement of magnetic induction, also known as magnetic flux density.

Magnetic dipole–dipole interaction

Magnetic dipole–dipole interaction, also called dipolar coupling, refers to the direct interaction between two magnetic dipoles.

Magnetic field

A magnetic field (sometimes called B-field) is a physical field that describes the magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents, and magnetic materials.

Magnetic moment

In electromagnetism, the magnetic moment or magnetic dipole moment is the combination of strength and orientation of a magnet or other object or system that exerts a magnetic field.

Monocrystalline silicon

Monocrystalline silicon, more often called single-crystal silicon, in short mono c-Si or mono-Si, is the base material for silicon-based discrete components and integrated circuits used in virtually all modern electronic equipment.

Nickel

Nickel is a chemical element; it has symbol Ni and atomic number 28.

Piezoelectricity

Piezoelectricity is the electric charge that accumulates in certain solid materials—such as crystals, certain ceramics, and biological matter such as bone, DNA, and various proteins—in response to applied mechanical stress.

Raster scan

A raster scan, or raster scanning, is the rectangular pattern of image capture and reconstruction in television.

Scanning tunneling microscope

A scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is a type of scanning probe microscope used for imaging surfaces at the atomic level. Magnetic force microscope and scanning tunneling microscope are scanning probe microscopy.
