摘要
En 中文
We present a 4 mm(2) image taken with a parallel array of 10 cantilevers, an image spanning 6.4 mm taken with 32 cantilevers, and lithography over a 100 mm(2) area using an array of 50 cantilevers. All of these results represent scan areas that are orders of magnitude larger than that of a typical atomic force microscope (0.01 mm(2)). Previously, the serial nature and limited scan size of the atomic force microscope prevented large scale imaging. Our design addresses these issues by using a modular micromachined parallel atomic force microscope array in conjunction with large displacement scanners. High-resolution microscopy and lithography over large areas are important for many applications, but especially in microelectronics, where integrated circuit chips typically have nanometer scale features distributed over square centimeter areas.
