Abstract :
In this work, we develop a new process for preparing patterned magnetic film on cantilever and show a primarily result of magnetic interactions in a paired magnetic bar measured by MTM. The process of patterning the magnetic film on the cantilever is following: (a) deposit a multilayer Au (200nm)/Cr (10nm) on cantilever, (b) patterning using a focused ion beam (FIB) milling, (c) magnetic film deposition through a mask, and (d) a lift-off process.
