Abstract

By means of focused ion beam milling, we fabricate Hall magnetometers with active areas as small as 100 x 100nm(2). The constituent material can either be metallic (Au), semimetallic (Bi) or doped bulk semiconducting (Si doped GaAs). We experimentally show that Au nano-probes can work from room temperature down to liquid helium with magnetic flux sensitivity < 10(-1) Phi(0). (C) 2006 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
