Abstract

The AFM is an imaging tool or a profiler with unprecedented 3-D resolution for various surface types. The AFM technology, however, leaves a lot of room for improvement due to its delicate and fragile probing mechanism. The distance between probe tip and sample surface must be maintained in below the nano meter level in order to measure the sample surface in Angstrom resolution. In this paper, the mode analysis of AFM system, modification based on the mode analysis are performed and finally the sample surface is measured by the home-built AFM.
