摘要
A high-speed atomic force microscope (HS-AFM) based on a tip-sample combined scanning architecture is presented. In this system, the X-scanner, which is separated from the AFM head, carries the sample and scans along the fast-axis. The Y and Z scanners integrated in the AFM head oscillate an ultrashort cantilever probe and scan in the other two dimensions. The optical beam deflection method is improved to enable the laser to track the probe over a wide scan range. A novel probe holder realizes easy exchange and alignment of the probe. Due to the separation of the X and Y scanners, both appear with better dynamic performance and carrying capacity. Experiments show that the HS-AFM established in this work can achieve a line rate of up to 100 Hz with the basic proportional-integral-derivative control algorithm and linear driving. The permissible sample size and mass can be as large as several centimeters and above 40 g.
