Abstract

Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM) is the enabling tool for nano(bio)technology, which has opened new vistas in many interdisciplinary research areas. Concomitant with the developments in SPM instrumentation and techniques are new and previously unthought-of opportunities in materials nanofabrication and characterisation. In particular, the developments in addressing and manipulating matter at the level of single atoms or molecules, and studies of biological materials (e.g. live cells, or cell membranes) result in new and exciting discoveries. The rising importance of SPM demands a concise treatm

Abstract

Near-surface atmospheric measurements over urban or industrial areas aimed at assisting the air-quality monitoring attain increasing societal significance due to the strong and direct impact of aerosol pollutions in the low troposphere on the human health. In this chapter, we present experimental results on lidar mapping of aerosol fields over the city of Sofia (Bulgaria), its suburbs and adjacent towns and villages, obtained during an extensive 7-month experimental campaign in 2015. The measurements are conducted by scanning observation zones in horizontal and vertical directions using lidar systems developed at the Institute of Electronics, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. Based on the aerosol backscattering profiles retrieved at different azimuth or elevation angles, two-dimensional color-coded sector maps of the near-surface aerosol density are obtained, overlaid on the topological map of the Sofia region. The analysis of the lidar maps shows good correlation between the aerosol density distribution and the locations of important sources of aerosol pollutions in the zones of observation, such as city streets with intense traffic, industrial facilities, densely populated residential districts, etc. The results reported demonstrate that aerosol lidar mapping could be regarded as an effective approach for accurate and reliable determination of the density, spatial distribution, and temporal dynamics of close-to-ground aerosols, covering broad urban areas. Possibilities of incorporating synergistically lidar mapping technologies into municipal air-quality monitoring systems are also discussed.

Abstract

The investigation and manipulation of matter on the atomic scale have been revolutionised by scanning tunnelling microscopy and related scanning probe techniques. This book is the first to provide a clear and comprehensive introduction to this subject. Beginning with the theoretical background of scanning tunnelling microscopy, the design and instrumentation of practical STM and associated systems are described in detail, as are the applications of these techniques in fields such as condensed matter physics, chemistry, biology, and nanotechnology. Containing 350 illustrations, and over 1200 references, this unique book represents an ideal introduction to the subject for final-year undergraduates in physics or materials science. It will also be invaluable to graduate students and researchers in any branch of science where scanning probe techniques are used.

Abstract

In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde ein elektrochemisches Raster-Sonden-Mikroskop dazu benutzt, gezielt Nanostrukturen herzustellen und zu charakterisieren. Das elektrochemische Umfeld bietet gegenüber den sonst angewandten Techniken den Vorteil, dass die Über- und Untersättigung an den beiden Arbeitselektroden frei eingestellt werden kann. Diese Methode erlaubt es lokal Nanostrukturen definierter Größe herzustellen. Mittels einer selbst aufgebauten UHV-Apparatur konnten Präparationstechniken zur reproduzierbaren Herstellung von geometrisch hoch definierten STM-Spitzen für nahezu jedes Metall entwickelt werden. Derart qualitativ hochwertige STM-Spitzen ermöglichten erstmals einen Strommessbereich von 10-6 bis10-12 Ampere abzudecken. Die entwickelten Instrumente konnten zur Untersuchung der Systeme Co bzw. Ni auf Au(111)-Substraten eingesetzt werden. Das Verfahren zur Erzeugung magnetischer Nanostrukturen wurde optimiert und erste spektroskopische Messungen an der Fest-/ Flüssiggrenzfläche konnten durchgeführt werden.

Abstract

Magnetic molecules have attracted lots of interest. In this work, an ultra-stable and low noise scanning tunneling microscopy operating at 400 mK using He-3 (930 mK using He-4) has been developed. The magnetic behavior of different magnetic molecules on substrates, especially the exchange interaction between the magnetic ions, the magnetic anisotropy on the surface, the magnetic excitations as well as the Kondo effect, were studied by using STM.
