Low-Temperature AFM

The LT-AFM is based on the CreaTec LT-STM with a special tuning fork sensor for combined AFM-STM measurements. Both signals, the AFM and STM, respectively are recorded independently from each other and can be correlated to the topology.


Technical Data:

  • High stability Besocke beetle type STM /AFM based on a tuning fork sensor head
  • Very small drift at low temperature: <2Å/h in thermal equilibrium
  • Temperature variable: 6-300K
  • Optional pumping of the LHe cryostat for temperatures below 4K
  • Very low helium consumption: 4 litres in 48 hours guaranteed (up to 100h achieved!)
  • Optical access to the tunnelling junction
  • 6 electrical contacts to the sample in the AFM
  • Sample transfer at low temperatures
  • Magnetic tip transfer system
  • Scan range: 1µm x 1µm x 0.2µm @ 6K
  • Clean ‘in situ’ dosing or evaporation
  • Powerful software with spectroscopy and nanostructuring support
