Tip-Sample Heat Transfer in Non-Contact Mode Scanning Thermal Microscopy With Wollaston Microprobes
Keyword(s):
Scanning thermal microscopy (SThM) is an attractive tool for high spatial resolution thermal characterization with minimal sample preparation.1 SThM measurements are usually performed in contact-mode, which entails multiple tip-sample heat transfer pathways, i.e. across air gap, liquid meniscus, and the solid contact. These hinder the quantification of the sample temperature or thermal properties or result in large uncertainties.2
