Depending on the interaction, a variety of surface properties can be measured in addition to topographic information, such as electrical, magnetic, and nanomechanical data. The main SPM scan modes are contact mode, TappingMode, and PeakForce Tapping mode, and these build the foundation of all advanced scanning techniques.

The probe is a microfabricated cantilever with a sharp tip. Tip and sample are in perpetual contact during the raster-scan. Detector signal is a measure of cantilever deflection in Z. In feedback mode, output signal usually adjusts the Z position of the scanner to maintain a deflection setpoint. This mode enables numerous secondary modes, including LFM, Force Modulation, SCM, SSRM, TUNA, and CAFM. TappingMode is a primary AFM mode. The probe is a microfabricated cantilever with a sharp tip. A drive signal, applied to the tapping piezo, mechanically oscillates the probe at or near its resonance frequency (usually the fundamental resonance). Detector signal is cantilever oscillation amplitude, or phase (relative to drive signal). In feedback mode, output signal usually adjusts the Z position of the scanner to maintain an (rms) amplitude setpoint. TappingMode enables numerous secondary modes, including PhaseImaging, EFM, MFM, and Surface Potential imaging. Native Collagen fibrils exhibiting the typical 67nm Probes: banding pattern.

15 PeakForce Tapping ScanAsyst C A approach B Time D withdraw E A PeakForce Tapping C + B E Auto Optimization of: Set Point Gain Scan Rate = approach D withdraw Z - Limit Time A B C D E PeakForce Tapping is Bruker s exclusive core technology that enables many of our most recent AFM innovations, including ScanAsyst, PeakForce QNM, PeakForce TUNA and ScanAsyst-HR. Like TappingMode, PeakForce Tapping is an AC imaging technique, i.e., the cantilever is oscillated, and therefore very gentle on even delicate samples. What makes PeakForce Tapping technology unique is that the probe is oscillated well below its resonance frequency. By doing so, every interaction between the tip and sample can be measured, generating a continuous series of force-distance curves. Rather than the feedback loop controlling the cantilever amplitude (i.e., like TappingMode), it is the peak force of each tip-sample interaction that is held constant. This allows PeakForce Tapping to operate at much lower forces and makes its operation inherently more stable in both air and liquid. It also makes it possible to measure nanomechanical and nanoelectrical properties during each interaction. Probes: ScanAsyst-Air pg 84 ScanAsyst-Fluid pg 84 ScanAsyst-Fluid+ pg 84 ScanAsyst is an exclusive imaging mode based on PeakForce Tapping technology that automatically optimizes imaging parameters including setpoint, feedback gains, and scan rate. This makes it faster and easier to obtain consistent high-quality results. Because the tip-sample interaction force is directly controlled, ScanAsyst is very gentle on samples in both air and liquid. Faster imaging is now possible using ScanAsyst with the Dimension FastScan AFM or using ScanAsyst-HR on the MultiMode 8 AFM. Polymer brush sample imaged on a MultiMode 8 using ScanAsyst.

Using specially engineered high-bandwidth probes, the fast scanning AFM tracks the sample surface using a feedback loop, with each component in the loop contributing its own dynamics or delays. The sum of all these component responses determine the full speed system transfer function (FSTF), establishing the FastScan s speed performance. A comparison of the FSTF for a FastScan versus a typical high-performance AFM shows a >20x higher frequency, resulting in direct proportion to scan rate. With FastScan, users can also survey samples at speeds >100x without ringing or sacrificing image quality and desired resolution. TappingMode AFM is an AC technique in which the cantilever is operated at or near its resonance frequency. Forces between tip and sample cause a change of the initial resonance behavior. Typically a reduction in the free air amplitude is maintained to track the sample topography. By simultaneously monitoring the phase shift between drive signal to the cantilever and its response, a so-called phase image can be generated that provides very high spatial information based on various material properties.

17 PeakForce QNM LiftMode DMT fit for modulus Adhesion Peak Force Deformation LiftMode Scan Dissipation Tip-sample Separation Lift Height TappingMode Height Data Baseline Attractive Forces Peak Force & Deformation Adhesion Baseline Modulus Dissipation PeakForce QNM is another exclusive imaging mode based on PeakForce Tapping technology. Here each tip-sample interaction is analyzed to extract quantitative nanomechanical properties including elastic modulus, adhesion, deformation, and dissipation. This allows each of these properties to be mapped quantitatively and at high resolution while still collecting standard topography images at normal imaging rates. Unlike some competing technologies based on old contact mode technology, PeakForce QNM works well on a wide range of sample types from soft delicate materials with modulus <1MPa all the way up to materials with modulus >50GPa. LiftMode is not an imaging mode, as it by itself does not measure a new quantity to reveal new information, but rather a technique that enables other modes such as MFM, EFM, and SCM. In LiftMode the sample is scanned first in a regular topographic mode: Contact, TappingMode or PeakForce Tapping. The following line, the lift line, traces the previously acquired topography back and adds a Z-offset. As the feedback laser is not necessarily needed during the lift line, experiments that would be influenced by laser light can be enabled (DarkLift).

SPoM is able to measure surface topography and surface potential (VDC) information simultaneously. Both amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency-modulation (FM) are available and they can be combined with TappingMode and PeakForce Tapping for topography mapping. Bruker s signature PeakForce KPFM mode combines the high spatial resolution offered by FM potential detection with complete auto-parameter setup for high measurement consistency and with the nanomechanical information available by employing PeakForce Tapping for topography feedback. STM is a primary AFM mode. The probe is a metal needle. Detector signal is the tunneling current between the tip and sample when an electrical bias, V, is applied. In feedback mode, output signal usually adjusts the Z position of the scanner to maintain a tunneling current setpoint. STM is the highest resolution AFM mode.

Detector signal is electric potential difference between tip and sample (or between tip and a reference electrode) in an ionic or polar liquid, where an electric double-layer exists at the liquid/sample interface. SECPM maps the electric potential profile across the depth of the double-layer (versus Z, the tip-sample distance) at tip XY location. In feedback mode, the output signal usually adjusts the Z position of the scanner. ECAFM is a technique combining atomic force microscopy with electrochemical control where the sample is the working electrode. An electrochemical cell provides counter and reference electrode. Control of all electrodes is provided by a (bi-) potentiostat. The AFM tip constitutes an in situ spectator, observing topographic changes directly in liquid, while under electrochemical control. All liquid AFM modes apply, including ScanAsyst for easies liquid imaging and including PeakForce QNM, providing quantitative nanomechanical information.

21 Torsional Resonance PeakForce TUNA & (Photo-)Conductive AFM Detector Signal Feedback Loop Maintains Constant Lateral Deflection Contact Mode Drive Signal Conductive AFM Probe Current Amplifier (Sub pa µa) Lateral Tip Dither n p Feedback Loop Output Signal Adjusts Z Position Si Z Raster Scan V DC Topography TUNA Data X Y During Torsional Resonance mode (TR-Mode ), the tip is actuated parallel rather then vertical with respect to the surface. Forces between tip and sample cause a change in resonance behavior that can be used to track the surface at a constant distance. TR-Mode has the advantage that the tip remains at a constant distance to the surface at all times. This can be advantageous in modes like TR-TUNA or nearfield-optical experiments. Tunneling AFM (TUNA) and Conductive AFM traditionally normally operate in contact mode. The imaging signal is the electric current between the conductive tip and sample for an applied DC bias. In the feedback mode, the DC bias is dynamically adjusted to maintain a constant tip-sample current. The operational current ranges from fa (TUNA) to μa (CAFM). More recently, CAFM and TUNA have been utilized with PeakForce Tapping into a new mode, PeakForce TUNA, which enables these measurements to be taken more reliably and on a much wider range of samples, as well as allowing for the direct correlation of electrical data with nanomechanical information from PeakForce QNM measurements. PeakForce TUNA can be leveraged to minimize damage and thus achieve best spatial resolution on the often mechanically delicate OPV samples.

SSRM measures the current by referencing it to an internal resistor, using a logarithmic amplifier, to yield local resistance value. SSRM maps the variation in majority carrier concentration in doped semiconductors with spatial resolution dependent on the contact area from which the spreading resistance emanates. Best spatial resolution is thus achieved on a dry sample surface with sharp probes. The high resolution, glove-box based SSRM-HR package therefore combines sample preparation in high vacuum with SSRM measurement at <1ppm H 2 O partial pressure. Transistor cross section. SCM uses contact mode AFM and a conductive probe and applies to semiconductor samples with an AC bias (amplitude DV, ~90kHz) with a DC offset. The capacitance of the metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) capacitor at tip-sample contact is a function of majority carrier concentration in the sample. SCM uses an ultra-high-frequency (1GHz) detector to measure tip-sample capacitance variation, DC, at the bias frequency. Sensor signal is DC/DV. In feedback mode, output signal is DV, adjusted to maintain a DC/DV Setpoint. SCM maps relative changes of majority carrier concentration in semiconductors.

23 Scanning Thermal Microscopies Piezoresponse Microscopy Vertical Deflection Monitored as Tip Heated Topographical Measurement Heater Control Temperature Measurement T Thermal Property Map Topographical Map In Scanning Thermal Microscopy (SThM) a heated tip is scanned across a sample. Changes in the tip s resistivity reveal either thermal conductivity or thermal gradients on the sample. In Nanoscale Thermal Analysis (NanoTA), a tip is heated in such a way that it induces a phase transition in the sample. That transition is monitored using the cantilever deflection and is material specific. Piezoresponse (Piezoforce) Microscopy (PFM) is a technique based on contact mode that maps out the inverse piezoelectric effect on a sample. The sample is electrically stimulated and the topographic response of the sample is monitored using lock-in techniques. Amplitude and phase information reveal information about the strength and direction of the polarization on the sample.

CD-AFM is accurate as it provides highly linear measurement over a range of line-widths and is unaffected by feature type, density or material type. Additionally, the technique is able to measure undercut features and can be calibrated using NIST traceable calibration standards to ensure accuracy of measurements. CDAFM capabilities have enabled its use as a reference metrology tool. Deep Trench (DT) Mode is an AFM mode developed specifically for the repeatable measurement of deep semiconductor trench structures for 90nm and below. It is an adaptive scan method in which data is only collected when user-specified system state conditions are met. This means that the tip is allowed to move only in certain servo states. DT Mode steps the tip along the sample surface collecting data points only when good scan criteria are met. This permits feature-dependent scan optimization in which the concentration of data points is highest on the features of interest and low elsewhere, resulting in improved measurement precision.

Bruker AFM Probes understands that most customers purchase their probes in large quantities to take advantage of volume discounts. Traditionally, the price per probe becomes decreasingly expensive as the pack size increases, with the best savings resulting from the purchase of an entire wafer. Unfortunately, large pack sizes have been identified as a frequent cause of inconvenience to the customer and corruption of probe quality over time: Large pack sizes have a hidden cost that customers share with friends and colleagues. The process of repackaging and distributing probes from larger pack sizes is time consuming and subjects the probes to potential handling damage. Large packs must be opened and closed repeatedly throughout their lifetime, continuously exposing the entire package to static and environmental contamination, thus degrading probe quality over time. In an effort to allow customers to continue to enjoy volume discounts while enabling them to preserve the initial quality of the probes, Bruker AFM Probes offers most probes in only two pack sizes 10-packs and wafers and extends the volume discount structure when multiple 10-packs are purchased. These discounts can be found on each product page in the website where applicable. Example: Price per 10-Pack, When Purchased in Quantities Indicated Model Wafer DNP-10 $ $ $ $ $ $ $4, DNP-S10 $ $ $ $ $ $ $5, NP-10 $ $ $ $ $ $ $4, NP-S10 $ $ $ $ $ $ $5, Since the cost of purchasing a wafer s worth of probes in individually packaged and sealed 10-packs is equivalent to purchasing the wafer in most cases, it is highly recommended that wafers are only purchased by customers who need to expose a full wafer to a secondary process, such as coatings, treatments, etc. For everyone else, buying large quantities of probes in 10-packs at the volume discount rate will make the probes easier to store, more effective to distribute, and guaranteed fresh every time a 10-pack is opened! 50 51

27 Quality and Performance Improvement of Bruker Silicon Nitride Probes B ased on customer experience and internal applications feedback, Bruker AFM Probes launched a project in 2009 to implement user requests and improve the quality and performance of the Silicon Nitride (SiN) probes. The outcome was twofold: 1) An updated version of the old SiN probe series with exactly the same lever characteristics, but with additional requested imaging benefits, and 2) an innovative high-performance SiN product line, capable of groundbreaking imaging results. Bruker s Silicon Nitride Probe Cantilever Layouts T he cantilever orientation of Bruker s Silicon Nitride probe 10-packs is indicated below, with top indicating upward in the box, and bottom indicating downward in the box. Differences Between the Old and New Style SiN Probes: The older style SiN products DNP, DNP-S, NP, NP-S, MLCT, MSCT were improved in February From this change, most customers are getting more consistent results with higher resolution imaging. The differences between the probes are detailed below: Old Style Lower Tip Aspect Ratio with 35 angles Slightly Blunter Tips with radius of curvature ~20nm to 50nm nominal Thicker Probe Body of 500μm with bonded glass wafer The New SNL Product Line: New Style Higher Tip Aspect Ratio with 15 to 25 angles Slightly Sharper Tips with radius of curvature ~15nm to 30nm nominal Thinner Probe Body of 300μm with no glass wafer Exactly the same as most standard silicon probes! The new SiN product line is called the sharp nitride lever series (SNL), and it unlocks never before possible, high-resolution imaging in contact mode, TappingMode, and now ScanAsyst mode operation. It combines a sharp silicon tip of 2nm (nominal) radius of curvature with the soft SiN cantilevers found on the legacy SiN products. The resulting new products SNL, MSNL, ScanAsyst-Air, ScanAsyst-Fluid, and ScanAsyst-Fluid+ are probes capable of high-resolution imaging with a tip that stays sharp during long term scanning, for all of the applications where a legacy SiN probe would have been used in the past.

28 Silicon Probes Contact brukerafmprobes.com/contact Contact etched silicon probes consist of an integrated single-crystal silicon cantilever and tip. The tip shape is identical to that of the most commonly used TappingMode probes (model TESP), however, the cantilever is longer, which provides the low spring constant needed for contact mode imaging. The tip has a smaller radius of curvature than most silicon nitride tips and steeper sidewalls, making it a good choice for applications requiring a higher aspect ratio tip. These probes can also be used with interferometer-based detection AFMs because of their long cantilever length.

30 Silicon Probes Force Modulation brukerafmprobes.com/forcemod Contrast in force modulation is dependent on the spring constant of the cantilever, which must complement the pliancy of the two materials being contrasted. The spring constant should be close to or in between the pliancy of one or the other material. In this way, the tip will indent into one material more than the other, providing good force modulation image contrast. These force modulation cantilevers have a mid-range spring constant that provides a good starting point for force modulation imaging.

Rocky Mountain Nanotechnology (RMN) probes are uniquely constructed from pure platinum and placed on a standard AFM probe sized ceramic substrate. Solid metal probes offer excellent conductivity and suffer no thin-film adhesion problems that occur with metal-coated silicon probes. These probes also have a tip radius (<20nm) that is difficult to routinely obtain by standard AFM probe processing methods. These probes are ideal for C-AFM, SCM, and KPFM/EFM applications. They are available in a range of spring constants. Each probe tip is individually imaged by FE-SEM to verify that the metallic probe tip radius is below 20nm.

64 Tip Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy TERS brukerafmprobes.com/ters The Tip Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (TERS) community has long recognized probe reliability and uniformity as the biggest barrier to the technique s wider adoption. Bruker has spent considerable resources overcoming this barrier, and has developed the world s first high-performance TERS probes only for Innova-IRIS systems. The combination of the Innova-IRIS AFM with the new IRIS TERS probes provides the most complete TERS solution available today. TERS-STM Innova-IRIS TERS probes for 633nm or 785nm excitation using STM feedback 10 Notes - For use with Innova-IRIS only, using cartridge model Pin-premounted for easier and safer handling. - At least 5 out of 10 probes reach >10 enhancement (tip-in vs tip-out) on TERS-SMPL. STM Probes Platinum-Iridium & Tungsten brukerafmprobes.com/stm Bruker s STM imaging probes are made of either Pt(80)Ir wire with a mechanically formed tip, or Tungsten wire with an electrochemically etched tip (except for part STM, which is mechanically formed). While the electrochemically etched Tungsten probes are very uniform and good for large-scan STM imaging on areas larger than atomic scale, the PtIr tips have potentially sharper tips and are recommended for atomic resolution imaging. The Tungsten probes come vacuum packaged to prevent oxidation -- once opened, these tips should be used in approximately one week since oxidation may degrade performance.
