Abstract:

Scanning tunneling microscopes (STM) exist in two versions. In both of these, a pointed metal tip is scanned in close proximity to the specimen surface by means of three piezos. The distance of the tip from the sample is controlled by a feedback system to give a constant tunneling current between the tip and the sample. In the low-end STM, the system has a mechanical stability and a noise level to give a vertical resolution of between 0.1 nm and 1.0 nm. The atomic resolution STM can show individual atoms on the surface of the specimen.A low-end STM has been put into the specimen chamber of a s

Abstract:

Scanning Tunneling Microscopy is a recently developed technique within the area of Scanned Image Microscopy that is based on tunneling between two conducting electrodes. This method offers, for the first time, the possibility of direct, real space determination of surface atomic and electronic structure in three dimensions on an atomic length scale, including nonperiodic structures.In this technique a sharp metal tip, mounted on a piezoelectric tripod that forms an orthogonal coordinate system, is brought to within a few Angstroms of the sample surface without “touching” the region to be scann

Abstract:

With the expanding use of the scanning tunneling microscope, the technology is developing into other scanning near field microscopes, microscopes whose resolution is determined by the size of the probe, not by some wavelength. The first available “son of STM” will be the atomic force microscope (AFM), a very low force profilometer which has atomic resolution and can profile non-conducting surfaces. The hope is that this microscope may find more applications in biology than the scanning tunneling microscope (STM), which requires a conducting or very thin sample.In the past five years, the STM h

We demonstrate that the scanning tunneling microscope can be used to obtain information about arrangement of tubulin subunits in the microtubule wall. Long rows of subunits with a periodicity of 3.8 +/- 0.4 nm were clearly visible in the images of microtubules. The separation between the rows of subunits was 4.8 +/- 0.4 nm. Close inspection of two images revealed another periodicity of 7.8 +/- 0.4 nm in the contour levels of the protofilaments. This indicates that alpha and beta tubulin monomers can be resolved. In these areas the monomers were arranged according to a ‘B-type’ lattice. Scannin

Abstract:

Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has been used for many atomic scale observations of metal and semiconductor surfaces. The fundamental principle of the microscope involves the tunneling of evanescent electrons through a 10Å gap between a sharp tip and a reasonably conductive sample at energies in the eV range. Lateral and vertical resolution are used to define the minimum detectable width and height of observed features. Theoretical analyses first discussed lateral resolution in idealized cases, and recent work includes more general considerations. In all cases it is concluded that lateral

The scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is capable of imaging conductive surfaces at atomic resolution. When STMs are used to image biological samples, however, STM resolution is limited to nanometer levels whether samples are hydrated, air-dried, or metal-coated. Lateral resolution is poor due to the nature of biological macromolecules (large Image aspect ratios) as well as to STM tip effects (shape, multiple tips, and tip/sample Interactions).

Abstract:

It has been 30 years since the Nobel Prize was awarded for scanning tunneling microscope (STM) in the year 1986, and there have been many instrumental developments and experimental achievements based on STM. In consideration of the strong capability and the extreme versatility in imaging, manipulating, and spectroscopy at the atomic level, STM has witnessed remarkable breakthroughs in many disciplines of condensed matter physics. In this paper, we will focus on recent STM studies on the interface superconductivity, which demonstrate a novel platform for exploring two dimensional superconductor

Abstract:

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy is widely used to characterize paramagnetic complexes. Recently, EPR combined with scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) achieved single-spin sensitivity with sub-angstrom spatial resolution. The excitation mechanism of EPR in STM, however, is broadly debated, raising concerns about widespread application of this technique. We present an extensive experimental study and modeling of EPR-STM of Fe and hydrogenated Ti atoms on a MgO surface. Our results support a piezoelectric coupling mechanism, in which the EPR species oscillate adiabatically in

Abstract:

Recent development of ultra-high vacuum electron microscopy (UHV-EM) is very rapid. This is due to the fact that it can be applied to variety of surface science fields.There are various types of surface imaging in UHV condition; low energy electron microscopy (LEEM) [1], transmission (TEM) and reflection electron microscopy (REM) [2] using conventional transmission electron microscopes (CTEM) (including scanning TEM and REM)), scanning electron microscopy, photoemission electron microscopy (PEEM) [3] and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM including related techniques such as scanning tunneling

Abstract:

Numerous scanned probe microscopes (SPM) have been developed over the past decade. Most are based on the precise positioning of sample and probe using piezoelectric transducers, and some have the capability of imaging flat surfaces with atomic resolution. The first atomic resolution SPM applied to biological samples was the scanning tunneling microscope (STM). The atomic force microscope (AFM) was subsequently developed and over the past few years has become the instrument of choice for biological applications.

Abstract:

Scanning tunneling microscopy has proven to be an enormously useful technique for probing the atomic scale electronic structure of clean semiconductor surfaces. In particular, application of STM current-voltage spectroscopy over the last several years has begun to yield detailed information about the energies and spatial locations of electronic bonds at surfaces. Recent work by Kaiser and Bell shows that STM can also be used to elucidate the nature of electronic transport across interfaces buried tens of nanometers beneth the surface. We are attempting to extend the STM current-voltage techniq
