Abstract

A magnetic measurement device which can measure the magnetic characteristics in a microregion of a thin plate magnetic sample. After a magnetic sample is applied by a magnetic field and magnetized accordingly, by scanning the magnetic sample using a measuring part, the magnetic flux leakage in the magnetic sample can be measured. The magnetic flux leaks outside by magnetizing a first region and a second region of the magnetic sample in reciprocally opposite directions and reducing the demagnetizing field. Specifically, a magnetic field generating part with at least a pair of magnetic poles is used to perform the magnetization of multiple poles, or the magnetic field generating part applies a damped oscillation magnetic field to perform the magnetization, or a local magnetic field generating part which applies an alternating magnetic field and scans the surface of the sample at the same time is used to perform the magnetization.
