Abstract
A new ultrahigh vacuum instrument allowing in situ Kerr microscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy is described. The Kerr microscope has a spatial resolution of about 1 mu m. First experimental results are re ported on the magnetism of a 5 mu m wide stripe consisting of six atom ic layers of Fe grown in situ by molecular beam epitaxy on a W(110) su rface.
