← ScienceWhich mechanism limits the spatial resolution in magnetic force microscopy?
A)Domain wall pinning expansion
B)Superparamagnetic blocking compensation
C)Dipole field averaging divergence✓
D)Magnetostrictive cantilever distortion
💡 Explanation
The stray magnetic fields from a surface average over larger volumes during imaging because dipole field averaging is an inverse-cube relation. Therefore, the spatial resolution suffers, rather than being pinned because domain wall pinning describes resistance to domain movement.
