    • The present invention provides a technique for eliminating the effect of the thermal drift and other variances and to improve the observing or manipulating accuracy of a scanning probe microscope or atom manipulator by using the technique to correct the aforementioned change in the relative position of the probe and the sample due to heat or other factors during the observation or manipulation. To obtain an image of the sample surface at the atomic level or perform a certain manipulation on an atom on the sample surface, the present invention can be applied to a probe position control method for controlling the relative position of the probe and the sample while measuring an interaction between the objective atom on the sample surface and the tip of the probe. In the present method, the relative position of the probe and the sample are changed while the probe is oscillated relative to the sample in two directions parallel to the sample surface at frequencies of f1 and f2 (S1a). Meanwhile, a point (or characteristic point) where the frequencies f1 and f2 disappear from the measured value of the interaction working in the direction perpendicular to the sample surface is detected (S1b). Then, the relative movement of the probe and the sample is controlled so that the measurement value thereby detected is maintained (i.e. the characteristic point is tracked; S1c), and the speed of the aforementioned relative movement is determined (S1d). Subsequently, the relative position control is corrected using the detected speed (S2).

    • A frequency shift Δf obtained by an FM-AFM can be expressed by a simple linear coupling of a ΔfLR derived from a long-range interaction force and a ΔfSR derived from a short-range interaction force. Given this factor, a Δf curve on an atomic defect and a Δf curve on a target atom on the sample surface are each measured for only a relatively short range scale (S1 and S2), and a difference Δf curve of those two curves is obtained (S3). Since the difference Δf curve is derived only from a short-range interaction force, a known conversion operation is applied to this curve obtain an F curve which illustrates the relationship between the force and the distance Z, and then the short-range interaction force on the target atom is obtained from the F curve (S4). Since the range scale in measuring the Δf curve can be narrowed, the measurement time can be shortened, and since the conversion from the Δf curve into F curve is required only once, the computational time can also be shortened. Consequently, in obtaining the short-range interaction force which acts between the atom on the sample surface and the probe, the time required for the Δf curve's measurement and the computational time are shortened, which leads to accuracy improvement and throughput enhancement.
    • 通过FM-AFM获得的频移和Dgr f可以通过从远程相互作用力得到的&Dgr; fLR和从短程相互作用力得到的&Dgr; fSR的简单线性耦合来表示。 考虑到这个因素,样品表面上的原子缺陷和目标原子上的&Dgr; f曲线每个都只测量相对较短的范围尺度(S1和S2),并且差分Dgr f曲线 得到这两条曲线(S3)。 由于差值Dgr f曲线仅来自短距离相互作用力,因此将已知的转换操作应用于该曲线,获得F曲线,该F曲线说明了力与距离Z之间的关系,然后是短距离相互作用 从F曲线获得目标原子上的力(S4)。 由于可以缩小&Dgr。f曲线的测量范围,所以可以缩短测量时间,由于从&Dgr。f曲线到F曲线的转换只需要一次,所以计算时间也可以缩短。 因此,在获得样品表面上的原子和探针之间作用的短程相互作用力时,缩短了&Dgr。f曲线测量所需的时间和计算时间,从而提高了精度和提高了生产率。
