QSM – Quantum Scanning Microscope
General information
Category
The QSM is a next-generation scanning probe magnetometer based on diamond technology. The diamond probes employ a single magnetic impurity in the carbon lattice (Nitrogen-vacancy center) as an atomic-size magnetic quantum sensor. The QSM combines uT sensitivity with a magnetic spatial resolution of tens of nm. Exploiting the principles of quantum metrology, the QSM provides unmatched performance in high resolution and quantitative magnetic analysis of antiferromagnets, magnons, skyrmions, cycloids as well as surface current densities.
