摘要: Noise reduction has been accomplished in atomic force microscopy by applying a high frequency, low amplitude vibration to the cantilever while it is contact with surface. The applied excitation (>~200 kHz; ~1 nm) acoustically coupled tip and dampens resonance Q factors of system. frequency well above bandwidth acquisition system (50 kHz). We call this mode "resonance contact" mode. nonlinear behavior tip–sample interaction allows effectively broaden response resonances.
