Sk. Khizroev et al., MFM QUANTIFICATION OF MAGNETIC-FIELDS GENERATED BY ULTRA-SMALL SINGLEPOLE PERPENDICULAR HEADS, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 34(4), 1998, pp. 2030-2032
The perpendicular fields emanating from an ultra small perpendicular s
ingle pole head have been quantified using a new MFM field mapping tec
hnique. This technique utilizes two MFM tips with different field sens
itivities which have been focused ion beam etched to identical geometr
ies. This technique has been used to quantify the perpendicular fields
around a 100 x 200 nm pole, also fabricated with focused ion beam etc
hing.
