Sensors & Detectors News
Scanning Impedance Probe Microscopy
May 1, 2008 — Mapping physical properties of various materials at high resolution has been pursued for decades in the microscopy world, and new challenges are added by the semiconductor and materials industries, which have an increasing need to map physical properties. The development of scanning tunneling microscopy in 1982 and of atomic force microscopy (AFM) in 1986 has significantly changed the world of microscopy. A number of methods derived from these techniques have been developed to probe the...
