We are offering visualisation of magnetic domains (in-plane and out-of-plane) at surfaces of your samples by magneto-optical Kerr microscopy.
Highest Resolution | 200 nm |
External magnetic field strength | up to 1 Tesla (depending on sample size and shape) |
Temperature range | 10 - 800 K |
Used light | blue, red and white |
Methods | Direct Kerr, MOIF (magneto-optic indicator films) |
Local and global measurement of magnetization loops by magneto-optical (MOKE) magnetometry. |
Quantitative analysis of magnetic domain pattern for thin magnetic films. |
Analysis of in-plane magnetic anisotropy in magnetic thin and thick films. |
Domain observation in electrical steel sheets in Epstein geometry (30 x 300 mm, sheet thickness variable) and amorphous and nanocrystalline ribbons of usual geometry. |
