eZSTM - Compact Scanning Tunneling Micrscopy

Scanning Tunneling Microscope is a device to scan conductive sample surfaces at the atomic scale. Quantum tunneling leads the STM theory. Conductive tip reaches to the conductive sample surface with a bias Voltage, and electrons can be tunneled between the sample and tip. As a result of this, tunnel current is occurred.

LT-AFM/MFM | LT-SHPM/STM| LT-SNOM| NV-CENTRE CONFOCAL MICROSCOPY | Low Temperature Microscope

The LT-AFM/MFM is an alignment-free Atomic Force Microscopy system equipped with a Fibre Interferometer operating at 1310 nm, 15 fm/√Hz noise level with an operation range of 20mK-300K, and up to 16T magnetic field.

With the help of a micron-sized semiconductor Hall sensor probe, our LT-SHPM enables user to map the surface Hall voltage V H as a function of position, which directly gives the spatial distribution of the local magnetic induction.

The LT-STM operates down to 10 mK and provides an atomic resolution. We can adapt the LT-STM system to your available cryostat system and customize it’s design due to your requirements.

LT-SNOM has the capability of near-field imaging and spectroscopy together with other AFM modes such as contact, dynamic, MFM, cAFM. A sample is illuminated optically by introducing a laser beam through specially designed optical fiber.

LT-SCM works by passing a laser beam through a light source aperture which is focused by an objective lens into a small area on the surface of the sample and an image is built up pixel-by-pixel by collecting the emitted photons from sample surface.
