  2. CD stamper AlGaN/GaN quantum well waveguide surface atoms on Si single crystal polymer growth AFM - atomic force microscopy A 'new' view of structure (1986) See Vocabulary of Surface Crystallography, Journal of Applied Physics 35, 1306 (1964), by Elizabeth A. Wood

  3. laser diode photodiode mirror Si3N4tip sample AFM - atomic force microscopy How does the microscope work? Tip scans sample Up and down movement of tip recorded by position sensing photodiode

  4. laser diode photodiode mirror Si3N4tip sample AFM - atomic force microscopy How does the microscope work? Tip scans sample Up and down movement of tip recorded by position sensing photodiode

  5. laser diode photodiode mirror Si3N4tip sample AFM - atomic force microscopy How does the microscope work? Two modes of operation

  6. Tip: 5-20 nm radius, 10-25 m high, on 50-400 m cantilever beam AFM - atomic force microscopy How does the microscope work? Contact mode - short-range interactions (Å) - interatomic forces

  7. AFM - atomic force microscopy How does the microscope work? Contact mode - short-range interactions (Å) - interatomic forces Tip: 5-20 nm radius, 10-25 m high, on 50-400 m cantilever beam Cantilever: low stiffness - can't deform surface Tip contacts surface Tip scans surface: either tip or specimen moved by piezoelectric positioning system over x and y Detector system can measure deflections in nm range

  8. AFM - atomic force microscopy How does the microscope work? Contact mode - short-range interactions (Å) - interatomic forces Two ways - 'constant force' ……. feedback system moves tip in z direction to keep force constant 'constant height'……. no feedback system - usually used when surface roughness small higher scan speeds possible

  9. AFM - atomic force microscopy How does the microscope work? Tapping mode - long-range forces - van der Waals, electrostatic, magnetic Tip vibrates (105 Hz) close to specimen surface (50-150 Å) with amplitude 10-100 nm May at times lightly contact surface Suitable for soft materials

  10. Amplitude Tip height AFM - atomic force microscopy How does the microscope work? Tapping mode Tip vibrates (105 Hz) close to specimen surface (50-150 Å) with amplitude 10-100 nm May at times lightly contact surface When near or on surface, oscillation is damped - tip z position corrected so that vibration amplitude stays constant

  11. AFM - atomic force microscopy From force-distance plot, can get: range & magnitude of attractive & repulsive forces elastic modulus & adhesion energy
