Electrical characterization of intermetallic FePt nanoparticles — •Ulrich Wiesenhütter1, Jochen Grebing1, Bernd Rellinghaus2, Jürgen Fassbender1, and Artur Erbe11Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden Rossendorf, D-01328 — 2Leibniz-Institut für Festkörper- und Werkstoffforschung, D-01069

Magnetic nanoparticles have a large potential for applications such as medical diagnosis and therapy, (bio-)sensors or magnetic recording. Conventional techniques, e.g., MFM, electron holography or Lorentz microscopy are only suited to determine magnetical properties of macroscopic particle ensembles. In order to investigate the electrical and magnetic properties of a single, free-standing FePt nanoparticle two nano-sized Au electrodes, that are fabricated by electron beam lithography, are used. The full characterization of the particle is carried out by electron microscopy and by recording current-voltage characteristics. Coulomb-blockade effects, which occur at low temperatures, can be used to determine the size and the magnetic properties of the particles.
