Metal-coated carbon nanotube tips for magnetic force microscopy

Abstract: Abstract:We fabricated cantilevers for magnetic force microscopy with carbon nanotube tips coated with magnetic material. Images of a custom hard drive demonstrated 20 nm lateral resolution, with prospects for further improvements.

“…Magnetic forces are long-range, while atomic forces are short-range: magnetic forces dominate images taken tens of nanometers or more from the sample, while atomic forces and topography dominate images taken within nanometers of the sample surface. [Deng 2004]. 3.…”

“…The CNT-tips can be obtained, for example, by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) from a catalyst particle at the end of a regular microfabricated AFM tip [Yenilmez et al, 2002], or by 'picking-up' from a substrate by scanning with a silicon tip [Hafner et al, 2001]. Metallic tips can be formed by electrochemical etching of a metal wire/tip [Gingery & Buhlmann, 2007], physically coating a CNT-tip [Deng et al, 2004], or by self assembly [Garcia-Martin et al, 2004].

“…17 With modern purification methods, even SWNTs of a specific helicity can be obtained. 18 Further, catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth methods can be used to make CNTs encapsulating metal particles and nanowires, [19][20][21] and methods of plating the exterior of CNTs with metals and electrically insulating layers have also been published; 22,23 these metal/CNT and insulator/CNT hybrid structures naturally have different electronic, mechanical and magnetic properties. Developers of CNT SPM probes therefore have a great deal of control over the properties of the CNTs used in probe manufacture.…”
