Abstract
Two kinds of new nano tips with potential to magnetic application are fabricated. One is a PtCo alloy pyramidal tip formed by surface faceting, the other is a Pt based Co tip formed by the epitaxy with a proper growth mode. Ultra high vacuum-field ion microscopy with atomic resolution is used to investigate the atomic structures of the tip apex after various sharpen treatments.
