Imaging of room-temperature ferromagnetic nano-domains at the surface of a non-magnetic oxide

The surfaces of transition metal oxides exhibit a wide range of functional behaviours, from magnetism to superconductivity. Here, the authors use high-resolution microscopy to image the temperature dependent development of nanoscale ferromagnetic domains on an oxygen-deficient SrTiO3surface.
