Scanning tunneling microscope for magneto-optical imaging

Effects of Temperature on Radiative Properties of Nanoscale Multilayer with Coherent Formulation in Visible Wavelengths

During the past two decades, there have been tremendous developments in near-field imaging and local probing techniques. Examples are the Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM), Atomic Force Microscope (AFM), Near-field Scanning Optical Microscope (NSOM), Photon Scanning Tunneling Microscope (PSTM), and Scanning Thermal Microscope (SThM).Results showed that the average reflectance for a dopant con...

Scanning tunneling microscope based nanoscale optical imaging of molecules on surfaces

Simple and efficient scanning tunneling luminescence detection at low-temperature.

We have designed and built an optical system to collect light that is generated in the tunneling region of a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope. The optical system consists of an in situ lens placed approximately 1.5 cm from the tunneling region and an ex situ optical lens system to analyze the emitted light, for instance, by directing the light into a spectrometer. As a demonstratio...

Scanning tunneling microscopy applied to optical surfaces.

The technique of scanning tunneling microscopy has been applied to topographic mapping of two optical surfaces: a ruled grating replica and a diamond-turned gold mirror. We have demonstrated the ability of the scanning tunneling microscope to measure surface topography of a ruled-grating replica over an area of 2 microm x 2 microm. Furthermore, surface structure on a diamond-turned gold mirror ...
