ABSTRACT:
A ultrathin, hollow, shell-shaped tip for use in a scanning tunneling microscopy system. A bias across a sample and the tip permits electrons tunneling from the surface of the sample to pass through the tip. Several properties of the tunneling electrons may be determined in such a system including the spin orientation, energy, and time dependence, for example. By rastering the sample across the tip, these properties can be imaged across the sample. A high resolution magnetic image of the sample can be generated.
