Abstract
Fe/Fe3O4 nanoparticles have been deposited on the surfaces of ultrathin CoFeB film and CoFeB/Ta/CoFeB hetero-structure to be detected due to the stray field generated by one particle or a cluster of particles. Exchange biased Fe/Fe3O4 core-shell nanoparticles have been used to stabilize the particles magnetization. Comparison between the Atomic Force and Magnetic Force Microscope images and subtraction of corresponding phase contrasts allows visualization of the film magnetization affected by the particles. Spectra of Ferromagnetic Resonance of the ultrathin films with deposited particles allow one to estimate particle/film dipolar interaction. The results will be useful for the development of lab-on-chip sensors of magnetically labeled cells. Estimation of particles number by magnetic response of the CoFeB heterostructure is demonstrated.
