Gas field ion source (GFIS) based microscopy—historically called Helium Ion Microscopy (HIM)—provides the unique ability to structure material on the nano-scale using an ion beam with a diameter of less than 5 Å. Usually high fluences of the relatively light noble gases are needed to change the shape, or induce property changes in the target structure. Here, we present a method that allows to create arbitrary shaped magnets in a Fe60Al40 alloy using fluences of only a few neon ions per square nanometer. Using neon chemical disorder can be introduced into the paramagnetic B2 phase of the alloy. The increase in Fe–Fe nearest neighbors results in a switch to ferromagnetism in the irradiated area. We will discuss the achievable minimal size (<50 nm) and the in–depth thickness of the magnets (15 nm–60 nm). X-rays, TEM and MFM have been used for characterization.
