Membrane-based torque magnetometer: enhanced sensitivity by optical readout of the membrane displacement

The design and realization of a torque magnetometer is reported that reads the deflection of a membrane by optical interferometry. The compact instrument allows for low-temperature measurements of tiny crystals less than a microgram with a significant improvement in sensitivity, signal-to-noise rati...
