Macroscopic magneto-transport measurements enable investigation of the transport properties of materials in the presence of magnetic fields, yet they do not allow access to atomic scale details. Here, the authors combine scanning tunneling potentiometry with magnetic fields to demonstrate nanoscale magneto-transport.
