Photothermal excitation for improved cantilever drive performance in tapping mode atomic force microscopy
Photothermal excitation is an alternative cantilever drive mechanism for tapping mode atomic force microscopy. It uses a power-modulated laser focused on the cantilever to directly drive its oscillation, producing cantilever tunes that match the thermal response almost perfectly. This enables quantitatively accurate AFM imaging and viscoelastic nanomechanical mapping in all environments. In add...
متن کاملWideband low-noise optical beam deflection sensor with photothermal excitation for liquid-environment atomic force microscopy.
I developed a wideband low-noise optical beam deflection sensor with a photothermal cantilever excitation system for liquid-environment atomic force microscopy. The developed sensor has a 10 MHz bandwidth and 4.7 fm/sq.rt.Hz deflection noise density in water. The theoretically limited noise performance (i.e., the noise level limited only by the photodiode shot noise) has been achieved in liquid...
متن کاملblueDriveTM Photothermal Excitation Frequently Asked Questions
Asylum Research’s blueDrive Photothermal Excitation option for the Cypher STM and Cypher ESTM atomic force microscopes (AFMs) makes tapping mode techniques simpler, more stable, and more quantitative. Tapping mode is by far the dominant choice in the world of AFM, measuring not just topography, but also mechanical, electrical, and magnetic properties. Typically, piezoacoustic excitation is used...
متن کاملSensitivity Analysis of Frequency Response of Atomic Force Microscopy in Liquid Environment on Cantilever's Geometrical Parameters
In this paper, the non-linear dynamic response of rectangular atomic force microscopy in tapping mode is considered. The effect of cantilever’s geometrical parameters (e.g., cantilever length, width, thickness, tip length and the angle between the cantilever and the sample's surface in liquid environment has been studied by taking into account the interaction forces. Results indicate that the r...
