Magnetic detection, and non-contact measurement can be realized, and it has important applications in the research of magnetic order, magnetic anisotropy, interlayer coupling and phase transition behavior of magnetic ultrathin films. The magneto-optical Kerr effect measurement device is mainly used to observe the magnetization of the sample surface by detecting the change of the polarization state of a beam of linearly polarized light caused by the change of the polarization state after the material surface is reflected. Defect 1 of the existing technology: The spatial resolution of the traditional focusing Kerr microscope is determined by the optical diffraction limit, and its imaging effect is easily limited by optical elements, so it is impossible to obtain the dynamic characteristics of magnetization at the nanometer scale. Defect 2 of the prior art: In some methods of obtaining the magnetization information of the sample by measuring the interference of two beams of light on the surface of the sample, the optical paths of the two beams of light are controlled separately and need to be recombined before detection, so more There are many optical components, so the signal-to-noise ratio of the obtained signal is low. The third defect of the prior art: in the device for measuring the Kerr rotation of the sample by interferometry in the prior art, only the polar Kerr effect can be measured. A nanostructure magnetic measurement method can solve the problem.
