Studying magnetic nanostructures and the local magnetic induction of bulk samples by micro-Hall magnetometry — •Merlin Pohlit1, Pintu Das1, Adham Amyan1, Yuzo Ohno2, Hideo Ohno2, and Jens Müller11Physikalisches Institut, Goethe-Universität, Frankfurt (M), Germany — 2Laboratory for Nanoelectronics and Spintronics, Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan

Hall magnetometers based on high-mobility two-dimensional-electron systems in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures are powerful tools for studying individual magnetic structures on the micro- and nanoscale [1]. In particular, the devices can be used in a wide temperature and magnetic field range. Besides the possibility to position magnetic structures directly on top of the lithographically defined Hall crosses, bulk magnetic and superconducting samples may be placed on the magnetometers for local magnetic induction measurements. Here, a series of adjacent Hall crosses allows for spatially-resolved measurements with micron-size resolution. The versatility of the devices can be demonstrated by different measuring techniques including eight-terminal Hall gradiometry, magnetic flux noise measurements and the use as susceptometers. We discuss various examples for these methods, e.g. on the ferromagnetic semimetal EuB6, where two consecutive transitions occur at 15.5K and 12.6K.These are related to electronic and magnetic phase separation and bulk magnetic ordering, but the details are not yet fully understood. We perform stray field calculations in order to simulate our results and find good agreement with the experimental data. [1] P. Das et al., APL 97, 042507 (2010)
