Atomic Force Microscopy Characterization of Hydrogen Terminated Silicon (100) 2x1 Reconstruction
DownloadFall 2015
Non-contact Atomic Force Microscopy (NC-AFM) is a Scanning Probe Microscopy tool offering unique non-perturbative analysis of surfaces and adsorbates at the atomic scale. AFM precisely oscillates a sharp tip above a sample. By monitoring the shift in resonance frequency of a quartz tuning fork...
