    The emergence of atomically thin van der Waals magnets provides a new platform for the studies of two-dimensional magnetism and its applications. However, the widely used measurement methods in recent studies cannot provide quantitative information of the magnetization nor achieve nanoscale spatial resolution. These capabilities are essential to explore the rich properties of magnetic domains and spin textures. Here, we employ cryogenic scanning magnetometry using a single-electron spin of a nitrogen-vacancy center in a diamond probe to unambiguously prove the existence of magnetic domains and study their dynamics in atomically thin CrBr3. By controlling the magnetic domain evolution as a function of magnetic field, we find that the pinning effect is a dominant coercivity mechanism and determine the magnetization of a CrBr3 bilayer to be about 26 Bohr magnetons per square nanometer. The high spatial resolution of this technique enables imaging of magnetic domains and allows to locate the sites of defects that pin the domain walls and nucleate the reverse domains. Our work highlights scanning nitrogen-vacancy center magnetometry as a quantitative probe to explore nanoscale features in two-dimensional magnets.

    Nanoscale mapping of magnetic auto-oscillations with a single spin sensor
    (2025) Hache, Toni; Anshu, Anshu; Shalomayeva, Tetyana; Richter, Gunther; Stöhr, Rainer; Kern, Klaus; Wrachtrup, Jörg; Singha, Aparajita
    Spin Hall nano-oscillators convert DC to magnetic auto-oscillations in the microwave regime. Current research on these devices is dedicated to creating next-generation energy-efficient hardware for communication technologies. Despite intensive research on magnetic auto-oscillations within the past decade, the nanoscale mapping of those dynamics remained a challenge. We image the distribution of free-running magnetic auto-oscillations by driving the electron spin resonance transition of a single spin quantum sensor, enabling fast acquisition (100 ms/pixel). With quantitative magnetometry, we experimentally demonstrate for the first time that the auto-oscillation spots are localized at magnetic field minima acting as local potential wells for confining spin-waves. By comparing the magnitudes of the magnetic stray field at these spots, we decipher the different frequencies of the auto-oscillation modes. The insights gained regarding the interaction between auto-oscillation modes and spin-wave potential wells enable advanced engineering of real devices.
