Abstract

Atomic force microscope (AFM) LiteScope™ produced by NenoVision is carefully designed for direct integration into many different types of scanning electron microscopes (SEM). It is equipped with unique technology for true correlative imaging – Correlative Probe and Electron Microscopy™ (CPEM). It allows simultaneous measurement of various signals of SEM, AFM and other related techniques like Electron Beam Induced Current (EBIC) or Catodoluminiscence (CL). LiteScope also enables using other methods such as Focused Ion Beam (FIB), Gas Injection System (GIS) or Electron Dispersive X-ray (EDX) to modify and right away analyze the sample surface. Among the main applications belong e.g. 3D surface characterization, height/depth profiling, surface roughness calculation, precise tip navigation, nanoindentation and nanomanipulation, variety of spectroscopic regimes, measurement of electrical and mechanical sample properties, etc.

Keywords: Correlative Probe and Electron Microscopy (CPEM), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Focused Ion Beam (FIB)
