摘要: A set of reference samples for comparing the results obtained with different magnetic force microscopes (MFM) has been prepared. These consist CoNi/Pt magneto-optic multilayers di¤erent thicknesses. The properties multilayer are tailored in such a way that very Þne stripe domain structure occurs remanence. On top this intrinsic structure, bits were written thermomagnetically using laser powers. have imaged six laboratories employing both home-built and commercial microscopes. resolution these microscopes, tips measurement methods varies between 30 100 nm.
