New Physical Review Materials paper on intrinsic in-plane magnetization at room temperature using Qnami QuantileverMX probes

We are thrilled to share outstanding newly published research enabled by our Qnami QuantileverMX probes.  

On March 24th, 2021, the team led by Professor Vincent Jacques published an article in Physical Review Materials identifying the only van der Waals material known to date where magnetic order occurs in few atomic layers even at room temperature using Qnami QuantileverMX probes.

Implications of these excellent results range from shedding lights on exotic magnetic phase transitions in bidimensional magnetic systems, to the design of potential spintronic devices based on van der Waals magnets. 

Prof. Jacques’ results were made possible only by using NV Magnetometry techniques where non-invasive magnetic microscopy is combined with the high sensitivity and high spatial resolution of atomic size quantum sensors as Qnami QuantileverMX probes.

Quantilever MX
Qnami Quantilever MX – Single NV diamond probe

Qnami QuantileverTMMX are diamond probes with a single-spin NV center for imaging of magnetic fields.  We designed this series for magnetic imaging with nanoscale resolution. With a single NV spin at the apex of the tip, Quantilever MX probes scan surfaces with extreme precision and allow non-perturbative analysis of a large variety of magnetic materials. Combine it with the Qnami ProteusQ for the best possible result.
