Title: Scanning microSQUID Force Microscope

Authors: C. Veauvy (1), D. Mailly (2), K. Hasselbach (1) ((1) CRTBT-CNRS, associé à l'Université Joseph Fourier (2) LPN-CNRS)
Abstract: A novel scanning probe technique is presented: Scanning microSQUID Force microscopy (SSFM). The instrument features independent topographic and magnetic imaging. The SSFM operates in a dilution refrigerator in cryogenic vacuum. Sample and probe can be cooled to 0.45 K. The probe consists of a microSQUID placed at the edge of a silicon chip attached to a quartz tuning fork. A topographic vertical resolution of 0.02 micrometer is demonstrated and magnetic flux as weak as $10^{-3} \Phi_{0}$ is resolved with a 1 micrometer diameter microSQUID loop.
