Fabrication, characterization and comparison of gold and graphene micro- and nano-size Hall sensors for room temperature scanning magnetic field microscopy applications is presented. The Hall sensors with active areas from 5 $mu$m down to 50 nm were fabricated by electron-beam lithography. The calibration of the Hall sensors in an external magnetic field revealed a sensitivity of 3.2 mV/(AT) $pm$ 0.3 % for gold and 1615 V/(AT) $pm$ 0.5 % for graphene at room temperature. The gold sensors were fabricated on silicon nitride cantilever chips suitable for integration into commercial scanning probe microscopes, allowing scanning Hall microscopy (SHM) under ambient conditions and controlled sensor-sample distance. The height dependent stray field distribution of a magnetic scale was characterized using a 5 $mu$m gold Hall sensor. The uncertainty of the entire Hall sensor based scanning and data acquisition process was analyzed allowing traceably calibrated SHM measurements. The measurement results show good agreement with numerical simulations within the uncertainty budget.

A low-temperature ultra-high vacuum scanning probe microscopy (SPM) system with molecular beam epitaxy capability and optical access was conceived, built, and tested in our lab. The design of the whole system is discussed here, with special emphasis on some critical parts. We made an SPM scanner head with a modified Pan-type design, enclosed by a double-layer cold room under a bath type cryostat. The scanner head is very rigid, compatible with optical access paths, and can accommodate both scanning tunneling microscope (STM) tips and atomic force sensors. Two piezo-actuated focus-lens stages are mounted on the two sides of the cold room to couple light in and out. To demonstrate the system performance, we performed STM and scanning tunneling spectroscopy studies. The herringbone reconstruction and atomic structure of Au(111) surface were clearly resolved. The dI/dV spectra of an Au(111) surface were obtained at 5 K. In addition, a periodic 2D tellurium (Te) structure was grown on Au(111) surface using MBE.
Scanning superconducting quantum interference device microscopy (SSM) is a scanning probe technique that images local magnetic flux, which allows for mapping of magnetic fields with high field and spatial accuracy. Many studies involving SSM have bee n published in the last decades, using SSM to make qualitative statements about magnetism. However, quantitative analysis using SSM has received less attention. In this work, we discuss several aspects of interpreting SSM images and methods to improve quantitative analysis. First, we analyse the spatial resolution and how it depends on several factors. Second, we discuss the analysis of SSM scans and the information obtained from the SSM data. Using simulations, we show how signals evolve as a function of changing scan height, SQUID loop size, magnetization strength and orientation. We also investigated 2-dimensional autocorrelation analysis to extract information about the size, shape and symmetry of magnetic features. Finally, we provide an outlook on possible future applications and improvements.

The intensity of scintillation light emission from liquid xenon at room temperature was measured. The scintillation light yield at 1 deg. was measured to be 0.64 +/- 0.02 (stat.) +/- 0.06 (sys.) of that at -100 deg. Using the reported light yield at -100 deg. (46 photons/keV), the measured light yield at 1 deg. corresponds to 29 photons/keV. This result shows that liquid xenon scintillator gives high light yield even at room temperature.

We present the design and performance of a cryogenic scanning tunneling microscope (STM) which operates inside a water-cooled Bitter magnet, which can attain a magnetic field of up to 38 T. Due to the high vibration environment generated by the magne t cooling water, a uniquely designed STM and vibration damping system are required. The STM scan head is designed to be as compact and rigid as possible, to minimize the effect of vibrational noise as well as fit the size constraints of the Bitter magnet. The STM uses a differential screw mechanism for coarse tip - sample approach, and operates in helium exchange gas at cryogenic temperatures. The reliability and performance of the STM are demonstrated through topographic imaging and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) at T = 4.2 K and in magnetic fields up to 34 T.
We present the design of a highly compact High Field Scanning Probe Microscope (HF-SPM) for operation at cryogenic temperatures in an extremely high magnetic field, provided by a water-cooled Bitter magnet able to reach 38 T. The HF-SPM is 14 mm in d iameter: an Attocube nano-positioner controls the coarse approach of a piezo resistive AFM cantilever to a scanned sample. The Bitter magnet constitutes an extreme environment for SPM due to the high level of vibrational noise; the Bitter magnet noise at frequencies up to 300 kHz is characterized and noise mitigation methods are described. The performance of the HF-SPM is demonstrated by topographic imaging and noise measurements at up to 30 T. Additionally, the use of the SPM as a three-dimensional dilatometer for magnetostriction measurements is demonstrated via measurements on a magnetically frustrated spinel sample.
