Imaging integrated circuit dopant profiles with the force-based scanning Kelvin probe microscope
A force-based scanning Kelvin probe microscope has been used to image dopant profiles in silicon for integrated circuit devices on a submicron scale. By measuring the potential difference which minimizes the electrostatic force between a probe and surface of a sample, an estimate of the work function difference between the probe and surface may be made.

Kelvin Probe Force Microscope Observation of Chlorine-Adsorbed TiO2(110) Surfaces
The rutile titanium dioxide (TiO2) (110) surface exposed to Cl2 gas was examined using scanning probe microscopes. The Cl adatoms formed by Cl2 dissociation were observed as bright spots in empty-state scanning tunneling microscope images. While 94% of the Cl adatoms were on the top of surface Ti atoms, the remaining 6% of the adatoms missed the on-top

Detection of individual dopants in the thin silicon layer using Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy is presented. The analysis of the surface potential images taken at low temperatures (13K) on n-type and p-type samples reveals local potential fluctuations that can be attributed to single phosphorus and boron atoms, respectively.

We report on a method to quantitatively measure the local energy distribution of surface states density within the band gap of semiconductors using Kelvin probe force microscopy. The method is based on scanning a cross-sectional pn junction; as the tip scans the junction, the surface states position relative to the Fermi level changes, thereby changing

Surface potentials of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) connecting two metallic electrodes have been investigated by both Kelvin probe force microscopy (KFM) and atomic force microscope potentiometry (AFMP). By comparing the surface potential measurements obtained by both methods, we also studied the major factors affecting the potential ...

Kelvin Probe Force Microscope Measurement Uncertainty
Advanced Materials Research, 2011Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy is an attractive technique for characterizing the surface potential of various samples. The main advantage of this technique is its high spatial resolution together with high sensitivity. However as in any nanoscale measurements also in case of KFM it is extremly difficult to describe the uncertainty of the measurement ...
