Magnetic Force Microscope Image Evaluation of Magnetic Iron Oxide Floppy Disc with Various Lift Heights. One of the advantages of Scanning Probe Microscopes (SPM) or better known as the Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) is its ability to "see" in detail at the level of atoms and molecules, so as to improve understanding of how a system works and leads to new discoveries in areas such as life science, materials science, electrochemistry, polymer science, biophysics, nanotechnology and biotechnology. To understand about the MFM mode, amplitude, phase and topographic image, a piece of a flop-py disk as references sample was used in various lift heights. In this paper presented the principles of AFM work and explain the necessary components of such equipment. The MFM images were taken in floating operation method at different heights namely 30, 40 and 60 nm between the surface sample and Co-Cr cantilever tip. Result showed the distance between the cantilever tip to the sample surface influenced the image quality. The best amplitude image could be taken in 60 nm distance.

In recent years, the magnetic force microscope (MFM) has been used not only for the evaluation of magnetic media but also for the measurement of magnetic characteristics of quantum dots as well as in various fields, because the MFM can visualize magnetic field on the sample surface with the high resolution. The MFM observation in ultra-high vacuum (UHV) requires to reduce the adsorption layer on the sample surface for high resolution observation. The slope detection mode using the variation of vibrating cantilever is basically unstable in UHV due to the increase in the Q factor of the cantilever. Accordingly it has been used for the MFM observation in air. On the other hand, the FM detection technique offers a very high sensitivity because of the high Q factor.This repot describes the MFM technique to take a magnetic image steadily in UHV. We observed the surface of a magnetic material with MFM technique in UHV, and compared the slope detection technique, the phase detection technique using phase variation of cantilever vibration, and the FM detection technique.

AbstractPhysical and chemical methods have been developed for water and wastewater treatments. Adsorption is an attractive method due to its simplicity and low cost, and it has been widely employed in industrial treatment. In advanced schemes, chemical oxidation and photocatalytic oxidation have been recognized as effective methods for wastewater-containing organic compounds. The use of magnetic iron oxide in these methods has received much attention. Magnetic iron oxide nanocomposite adsorbents have been recognized as favorable materials due to their stability, high adsorption capacities, and recoverability, compared to conventional sorbents. Magnetic iron oxide nanocomposites have also been reported to be effective in photocatalytic and chemical oxidation processes. The current review has presented recent developments in techniques using magnetic iron oxide nanocomposites for water treatment applications. The review highlights the synthesis method and compares modifications for adsorbent, photocatalytic oxidation, and chemical oxidation processes. Future prospects for the use of nanocomposites have been presented.
