Preparation of high-resolution magnetic force microscope tips coated with Co and FeCo films

Magnetic force microscope (MFM) tips are prepared by coating Si tips of 4 nm radius with Co and Fe65Co35 (at. %) films by employing an ultra-high vacuum evaporation system. The effect of coating film thickness on MFM spatial resolution is investigated. With increasing the thickness from 10 to 20 nm,...
