AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The magneto-optical Kerr effect measurement device mainly detects the magnetization observation of the sample surface by detecting the change of the polarization state of a beam of linearly polarized light after it is reflected on the surface of the material. Therefore, the imaging effect is easily limited by the optical elements. Technical defect 1: The spatial resolution of the traditional focusing Kerr microscope using microscope objective lens is determined by the optical diffraction limit, so it is impossible to obtain the dynamic characteristics of magnetization at the nanometer scale; the existing technical defect 2: it is impossible to obtain higher frequency magnetization in the sample. Magnetization dynamic information, the measurement method of the nanoscale magnetization dynamics can solve the problem
