Problems solved by technology

For an atomic force microscope without a supporting optical system, it is difficult to precisely locate a specific position
The Chinese patent "Scanning Probe Microscope Sample Positioning Method" of Patent No. 99126338.3 reports a method, which is to divide a small area on one side of a transparent substrate and mark different numbers, foreign letters or various digital symbols and other identifiers to show difference, or after marking various identifiers in the small squares of the coordinate axis graph paper, paste them on the reverse side of the transparent substrate with double-sided tape or glue, or use etching technology to etch the coordinates on one side of the transparent substrate and lattice, the defect of this method is that it needs to be marked on the back of the substrate or use existing materials such as coordinate paper to mark, resulting in damage to the substrate or blurring of the scale, and the positioning is not fast and convenient enough. In addition, it is not very good. The influence of the tip shape of the atomic force microscope on the measurement is completely ruled out
The method provided by Chinese Patent Application No. 200410084487.2 "Repositioning Method Based on Atomic Force Microscope" requires self-made positioning tools, and this method is to process the substrate. Since the substrate is a consumable, it is time-consuming and consumable

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for precise orientation by an atomic force microscope. The precise orientation method comprises steps of: firstly finding a sample to be measured by an optical microscope; putting a copper net Center_Marked Grids above the sample to be measured, the copper net being formed by ruled grids with the same size, recording the region of the grids corresponding to the sample to be measured under the optical microscope, scanning the Center_Marked Grids by using an atomic force microscope, reducing the scanning area stage by stage, locating a probe of the atomic force microscope above the corresponding grids of the sample to be measured; and finally, softly blowing the Center_Marked Grids from side by using a washing ear ball; thereby carrying out the precise observation of the atomic force microscope by knitting stitch. The method can precisely orientate the sample to be scanned.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an accurate positioning method based on an atomic force microscope, that is, a method for accurately positioning a sample in a micro region by using an atomic force microscope. technical background [0002] AFM is an important tool for studying the surface structure of objects at the nanometer scale, and has been widely used in physics, biology, chemistry and other research. At the beginning of the invention of the atomic force microscope, it has been used for physical research. The universal uniformity of physical materials determines that it is not necessary to image a specific sample, so that it is not necessary to accurately position the sample to be tested. Therefore, the atomic force microscope of some manufacturers does not have a supporting optical system ( Such as the 9500J3 atomic force microscope of Shimadzu Corporation of Japan, and the Dimension 3100 atomic force microscope of Veeco Precision Instrument Co., Ltd. o...
