the scanning electron microscope
it is only thirteen years since the scanning electron microscope has been available commercially. yet, even in this short period of time, this instrument has been a powerful tool in the investigation of topography, electrical and magnetic properties, crystal structure, cathodoluminescent characteristics etc. of solid specimens. today, this type of microscope has opened its place alongside the c...
متن کاملThe ultrasonic/shear-force microscope: Integrating ultrasonic sensing into a near-field scanning optical microscope
An ultrasonic transducer is incorporated into a near-field scanning optical microscope NSOM to augment its versatility to characterize the properties of layers adsorbed to a sample’s surface. Working under typical NSOM operation conditions, the ultrasonic transducer—attached underneath the sample—demonstrates sufficient sensitivity to monitor the waves generated by the tapered NSOM probe that o...
متن کاملConstruction of a dilution refrigerator cooled scanning force microscope.
We present a scanning force microscope that operates in a dilution refrigerator at temperatures of about 100 mK. We use tuning fork sensors for scanning gate experiments on mesoscopic semiconductor nanostructures. Slip-stick motors allow sample coarse-positioning at base temperature. The construction, thermal anchoring, and a procedure to optimize the settings of the phase-locked loop that we u...
متن کاملAdvanced Control of Atomic Force Microscope for Faster Image Scanning
In atomic force microscopy (AFM), the dynamics and nonlinearities of its nanopositioning stage are major sources of image distortion, especially when imaging at high scanning speed. This chapter discusses the design and experimental implementation of an observer-based model predictive control (OMPC) scheme which aims to compensate for the effects of creep, hysteresis, cross-coupling, and vibrat...
متن کاملA stand-alone scanning force and friction microscope
We present a new design for a compact stand-alone force and friction microscope. Both the force sensor and the scanning unit are mounted on the microscope head, thus allowing the investigation of virtually all surfaces, independent of thickness and size, and minimizing the geometrical dimension. The beam deflection method in a collinear arrangement is used to detect the normal force and the fri...
