Magnetic profile measuring device and method for measuring magnetic profile for alternating-current magnetic field

摘要

A magnetic profile measuring device which scans a space where an alternating-current magnetic field exists by a magnetized probe on a tip of a driven cantilever, detects vibration of the cantilever, and generates an image of magnetic field distribution of the space, the device including: the cantilever having the probe equipped on the tip thereof; a driver driving the cantilever; a vibration sensor detecting vibration of the probe wherein the driven vibration of the cantilever is frequency-modulated by the alternating-current magnetic field; a demodulator demodulating from a detection signal of the vibration sensor a magnetic signal corresponding to an alternating-current magnetic field; a scanning mechanism; a data storage storing an initial data for each coordinate of the space; a modified data generator recalling the initial data from the data storage and generating a plurality of data by modifying the phase of the initial data; and an image display device.
