This thesis presents the development of a scattering scanning near-field microscope (s-SNOM) and investigations on the photoluminescence study of solid C60. The first part concerns setting up of such a scattering SNOM where a tuning fork with an attached A ...
NOVELTY - The microscope has a housing (12), and two actuators (14, 16) are arranged in an opposed push-pull configuration that is coupled to the housing. A support (22) is coupled to the housing and to one of the two actuators at a position that is spaced ...
NOVELTY - The microscope (11) has a set of four actuators (14, 16, 18, 20) i.e. piezoelectric actuators, and a strain gauge coupled to two opposed actuators (14, 18), arranged in opposed push or push-pull configuration to measure the differential motion of ...
A quartz tuning-fork (TF)-based scanning probe is presented for local electrical transport measurements on quantum devices below the liquid 4He temperature. The TF is utilized to drive and sense the mechanical oscillation of an attached, microfabricated ca ...
This paper describes the characterization and application of electrically insulated conductive tips mounted on a cantilever for use in an atomic force microscope and operated in liquid. These multifunctional probes were microfabricated and designed for mea ...
The operation of the scanning near-field optical microscope based on the double-resonant montage of a fiber probe onto the tuning fork (working frequency of the latter, that is 32 kHz, coincides with the second resonance frequency of the bending oscillatio ...

The general idea of Nanotechnology is not new – it has been studied since Nobel laureate Richard Feynman outlined the idea in a speech in 1959 – but it's only recently that the progress carried out in the various fields of material, optic, physic and engin ...
We present the results of an exptl. and theor. study on the optimum design of shear-force sensors, used in scanning probe microscopes. We have optimized a configuration consisting of a tuning-fork/fiber-tip assembly, achieving quality factors (Q) exceeding ...
The dynamic mode atomic force microscopy based on a microfabricated cantilever and a commercial quartz tuning fork was probed. The probe was self-sensing and self-actuating. The tuning fork performed the function of a force sensor. The amplitude and freque ...
A novel probe based on a commercial quartz tuning fork and a microfabricated cantilever is presented. The U-shaped cantilever with a monolithic tip is combined with the tuning fork in a symmetrical arrangement, such that each of the two legs of the cantile ...
