Barcode magnetic nanowires typically comprise a multilayer magnetic structure in a single body with more than one segment type. Interestingly, owing to selective functionalization and novel interactions between the layers, barcode magnetic nanowires have attracted significant attention, particularly in the field of bioengineering. However, an analysis of their magnetic properties at the individual nanowire level remains challenging. With this background, herein, we investigated the characterization of magnetic nanowires at room temperature under ambient conditions based on magnetic images obtained via wide-field quantum microscopy with nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond. Consequently, we could extract critical magnetic properties, such as the saturation magnetization and coercivity, of single nanowires by comparing the experimental results with those of micromagnetic simulations. This study opens up the possibility for a versatile characterization method suited to individual magnetic nanowires.
