Observation of localized ferromagnetic resonance in a continuous ferromagnetic film via magnetic resonance force microscopy

We present Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy (MRFM) measurements of Ferromagnetic Resonance (FMR) in a 50 nm thick permalloy film, tilted with respect to the direction of the external magnetic field. At small probe-sample distances the MRFM spectrum breaks up into multiple modes, which we identify as local ferromagnetic resonances confined by the magnetic field of the MRFM tip. Micromagnetic simulations support this identification of the modes and show they are stabilized in the region where the dipolar tip field has a component anti-parallel to the applied field.

Wigner islands with electrons over helium

We present here the first experimental study of Wigner islands formed by electrons floating over helium. Electrons are trapped electrostatically in a mesoscopic structure covered with a helium film, behaving as a quantum dot. By removing electrons one by one, we are able to find the addition spectrum, i.e. the energy required to add (or extract) one electron from the trap with occupation number $N$. Experimental addition spectra are compared with Monte Carlo simulations for the actual trap geometry, confirming the ordered state of electrons over helium in the island.
