Title:
NEAR-FIELD POLARIZATION MICROSCOPE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/024629
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[Problem] To provide a near-field polarization microscope with which it is possible to accurately detect a magnetic domain in a sample while applying a magnetic field to the sample from the outside. [Solution] This near-field polarization microscope 1 is provided with: a cantilever 3 having a probe 2; a magnetic domain detection optical system 4 for detecting a magnetic domain in a sample 8 using near-field light produced by irradiating the probe 2 with a magnetic domain detection laser beam 11; an observation illumination optical system 5 for observing the state of irradiation by the magnetic domain detection laser beam 11; an objective lens 6 shared by the magnetic domain detection optical system 4 and the observation illumination optical system 5; and a magnetic field application means 7 for applying a magnetic field to the sample 8 from the outside. The cantilever 3, which is formed from a non-magnetic and electrically non-conductive material, and the sample 8, which is formed from a magnetic material, are arranged between an upper magnetic pole 43 and a lower magnetic pole 44 provided to the magnetic field application means 7.
