Chiral magnetic structures, in which Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction plays an important role on the mechanism of stabilization, have been predicted being a candidate for spintronic applications. By utilizing the combination of spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscope (SP-STM) and magnetic exchange force microscopy (MExFM), or so-called SPEX, we get both the magnetic and geometric sensitivity down to the atomic scale. We apply this method to probe the magnetic structure of the bilayer of Fe on Ir(111), which reveals chiral magnetic order. However, both SP-STM and MExFM do not reveal magnetic contrast of the total unit cell, resulting from the strongly corrugated surface. Therefore, we use the manipulation of iron adatoms, which locally exchange couple with the underlying spin spiral, providing spin information in regions of the unit cell where no magnetic contrast can be observed in SPEX images of the bare surface.
