We present an easy, fast and reliable method for the preparation of magnetic force microscopy (MFM) probes based on single magnetic nanoparticles. Due to their dipole like characteristics, these kind of magnetic probes open up possibilities for quantitative measurements of magnetizations on the nano-scale. Our fabrication method is based on the deposition of cobalt nanoparticles (diameter 30 nm) on a Si substrate and subsequent photochemical deposition of a gold layer on the particle surface. Single particles were attached to standard silicon AFM tips with the aid of a linker molecule (APTMS). The applicability of the fabricated probes was tested by imaging the magnetic domains of a hard disk drive sample. Furthermore a calibration method, using the deflection of the AFM cantilever in an external magnetic field, is presented.
