Imaging of flexural and torsional resonance modes of atomic force microscopy cantilevers using optical interferometry Michael Reinstaedtler , Ute Rabe , Volker Scherer , Joseph A.Turner , Walter Arnold Surface Science 532-535(2003) 1152-1158 Date : 13th October 2005 Presenter : Ashwin Kumar Background - Operation of the AFM A sharp tip is scanned over the sample surface the tip is maintained at a constant force (to obtain height information), or height (to obtain force information) above the sample surface Tips are typically made from Si3N4 or Si, and extended down from the end of a cantilever An optical detection system is used, in which a diode laser is focussed on the back of a reflective cantilever As the tip moves up and down with the contour of the surface, the laser beam is deflected off the attached cantilever into a dual element photodiode AFM Schematic Background - AFM Modes Contact Mode the tip scans the sample in close contact with the surface The force on the tip is repulsive with a mean value of 10 -9 N the deflection of the cantilever is sensed and compared in a DC feedback amplifier to some desired value of deflection Non-Contact Mode (used when tip contact might alter the sample surface) In this mode the tip hovers 50 - 150 Angstrom above the sample surface Attractive Van der Waals forces acting between the tip and the sample are detected topographic images are constructed by scanning the tip above the surface Background - AFM Modes Tapping Mode:(sample surfaces that are easily damaged ) The cantilever assembly is oscillated at or near the cantilever's resonant frequency the cantilever is oscillated with a high amplitude when the tip is not in contact with the surface The oscillating tip is then moved toward the surface until it begins to lightly touch, or tap the surface. During scanning, the vertically oscillating tip alternately contacts the surface and lifts off The reduction in oscillation amplitude is used to identify and measure surface features. Motivation Earlier Work involved determination of contact stiffness and localized elastic modulus measurement of the surface The vibrational spectrum of the cantilever is used to discern local elastic data. It becomes imperative to understand the vibrational spectra completely to perform the above mentioned measurements The free vibrational response would help to characterize the cantilever or the probe Moreover, since the boundary conditions are also changed during the contact mode resonance, Free vibrational response and imaging the mode shape would help as a tool for calibration or standard. * Ultrasonics 38(2000) 430-437 * Journal of Applied Physics, 82(1997) 966 * Review of Scientific Instruments 67(1996) 3281 In a Nutshell Excite and Detect the torsional vibrations of the AFM cantilevers.
