Focused ion beam (FIB) fabrication methods enable precise nanoscale devices to be fashioned from high-quality single crystalline materials, ideal for exploring magnetic textures and nonlinear transport phenomena. In this talk, I will detail and explain the methodology and rationale behind the various FIB device designs I have utilised to investigate emergent functionality in a wide range of quantum materials, including p-wave magnets, skyrmions and time-reversal symmetry breaking antiferromagnets.
