Abstract
Using a nanogram-sized single crystal of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8-x attached to a micr ocantilever we demonstrate in a direct way that in magnetic fields nearly p arallel to the nb plane the magnetic field penetrates the sample in the for m of Josephson vortices rather than in the form of a tilted vortex lattice. We further investigate the relation between the Josephson vortices and the pancake vortices generated by the perpendicular field component.
