High speed atomic force microscopy can provide the possibility of many new scientific observations and applications ranging from nano-manufacturing to the study of biological processes. However, the limited imaging speed has been an imperative drawback of ...
In this paper, we report on the integration technique and fabrication of a scanning probe interrogating the location of charges and their tracks inside quantum devices. Our unique approach is to pattern the charged sensor into a high topography micromechan ...
This paper presents a simple, cost-effective and robust atomic force microscope (AFM), which has been purposely designed and built for use as a teaching aid in undergraduate controls labs. The guiding design principle is to have all components be open and ...
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 ...
Two magnetic atoms, one attached to the tip of a scanning tunnelling microscope and one adsorbed on a metal surface, each constituting a Kondo system, have been proposed as one of the simplest conceivable systems potentially exhibiting quantum critical beh ...
Improving the imaging speed of atomic force microscopy (AFM) requires accurate nanopositioning at high speeds. However, high speed operation excites resonances in the AFM's mechanical scanner that can distort the image, and therefore typical users of comme ...
The Phoenix microscopy station, designed for the study of Martian dust and soil,consists of a sample delivery system, an optical microscope, and an atomic force microscope. The combination of microscopies facilitates the study of features from the millimet ...
This paper presents a microfluidic push-pull probe for scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) consisting of a working microelectrode, an integrated counter/reference electrode and two microchannels for pushing and pulling an electrolyte solution to and ...
In this study, we introduce five unique scanning vibes developed in our laboratory for different fields of application These probes are the results of excellent collaborations with many external partners Each probe possesses many advanced features that one ...
The combination of the topographic resolution of Scanning Probe Microscopy with the subwavelength information of light/matter interaction leads to a new instrument called Scanning Near-field Optical Microscope (SNOM). This new instrument is an ideal tool t ...
