A compact high-speed X-ray atomic force microscope has been developed forin situuse in normal-incidence X-ray experiments on synchrotron beamlines, allowing for simultaneous characterization of samples in direct space with nanometric lateral resolution while employing nanofocused X-ray beams. In the present work the instrument is used to observe radiation damage effects produced by an intense X-ray nanobeam on a semiconducting organic thin film. The formation of micrometric holes induced by the beam occurring on a timescale of seconds is characterized.

AbstractThe transformation of Au thin films grown on sapphire (0001) substrates into nano crystals during thermal annealing was investigated by in situ synchrotron x-ray scattering and ex situ atomic force microscopy (AFM). By monitoring the Au(111) Bragg reflection and the low Q reflectivity and comparing them with ex situ AFM images, we found that polygonal-shape holes were nucleated and grow initially. As the holes grow larger and contact each other, their boundary turns into Au nano crystals. The Au nano crystals have a well-defined (111) flat top surface and facets in the in-plane direction.

The three-point bending behavior of a single Au nanowire deformed by an atomic force microscope was monitored by coherent X-ray diffraction using a sub-micrometer sized hard X-ray beam. Three-dimensional reciprocal-space maps were recorded before and after deformation by standard rocking curves and were measured by scanning the energy of the incident X-ray beam during deformation at different loading stages. The mechanical behavior of the nanowire was visualized in reciprocal space and a complex deformation mechanism is described. In addition to the expected bending of the nanowire, torsion was detected. Bending and torsion angles were quantified from the high-resolution diffraction data.

Abstract The aim of this research is to study the morphological analysis of fabricated Interdigitated Electrode (IDE). This device electrode was physically characterized using 3D nano profiler, scanning electrode microscope (SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and Atomic Force Microscope (AFM). Based on this analysis, IDE pattern was analyzed thoroughly based on the IDE pattern specifications with 5 μM finger gap and this research significantly will stand as a platform quantify the biomolecules in further analysis.

ABSTRACTAlN, GaN, and SiC thin films were grown on 100 mm diameter Si(111) and Si(100) substrates using Supersonic Jet Epitaxy (SJE). Precursor gases were seeded in lighter mass carrier gases and free jets were formed using novel slit-jet apertures. The jet design, combined with substrate rotation, allowed for a uniform flux distribution over a large area of a 100 mm wafer at growth pressures of 1–20 mTorr. Triethylaluminum, triethylgailium, and ammonia were used for nitride growth, while disilane, acetylene, and methylsilane were used for SiC growth. The films were characterized by in situ optical reflectivity, x-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE).

AbstractThis article presents a new tilting atomic force microscope (AFM) with an adjustable probe direction and piezoresistive cantilever operated in tapping-mode. The AFM is based on two rotational axes, which enable the adjustment of the probe direction to cover a complete hemisphere. The whole setup is integrated into a nano measuring machine (NMM-1) and the metrological traceability of the piezoresistive cantilever is warranted by in situ calibration on the NMM-1. To demonstrate the capabilities of the tilting AFM, measurements were conducted on a step height standard.
