Development of high-resolution MFM-tips

Summary form only given. In this contribution, we report on the preparation of high-resolution MFM tips using the EBD-method for MFM measurements on soft magnetic samples. Electron beam lithography (EBL) using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to define small particles of magnetic material at the very end of a commercial scanning microscope tip to achieve maximum lateral resolution with low magnetic moment.
