AFM for Topological & Magnetic Materials

Topological insulators, 2D magnets and correlated oxides combine electrical and magnetic contrast. MFM and the Variable Magnetic Field Module image magnetic domains under an applied field, HD-KFM™ III and ResiScope™ III the electrical side, and EZ Temperature stages add temperature.
