摘要:

We report a novel method to measure the remnant magnetic field in Lorentz mode in a FEI Tecnai F20 TEM equipped with a Lorentz lens. The movement of the circle Bloch line of the cross-ties wall in Permalloy is used to measure the remnant magnetic field by tilting the specimen and increasing the objective lens current. The remnant magnetic field is estimated to be about 17 Oe, against the objective lens magnetic field, and can be compensated by increasing the objective lens current properly.

Abstract:

A novel method was reported to measure the remnant magnetic field in Lorentz mode in a FEI Tecnai F20 transmission electron microscope equipped with a Lorentz lens. The movement of the circle Bloch line of the cross-tie wall in Permalloy is used to measure the remnant magnetic field by tilting the specimen and adjusting the objective lens current. The remnant magnetic field is estimated to be about 17 Oe, in a direction opposite to that of the objective lens magnetic field. The remnant magnetic field can be compensated by adjusting the value of the objective lens current.
