Understanding the atomic-scale contrast in Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A numerical analysis of the origin of the atomic-scale contrast in Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) is presented. Atomistic simulations of the tip-sample interaction force field have been combined with a non-contact Atomic Force Microscope/KPFM ...

Quantitative investigation of plasmonic hot-electron injection by KPFM

open access: yesApplied Surface Science, 2019
Abstract Hot-electron injection is widely used in plasmonic devices. However, it is still lack of a direct theoretical model for performance prediction. This paper measures the surface potential of Au/TiO2 film by Kelvin probe force microscope (KPFM) under various conditions, and then develops a theoretical model for quantitative interpretation.

Scanning Quantum Dot Microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Interactions between atomic and molecular objects are to a large extent defined by the nanoscale electrostatic potentials which these objects produce. We introduce a scanning probe technique that enables three-dimensional imaging of local electrostatic ...

MOVPE-Grown Quantum Cascade Laser Structures Studied by Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy

open access: yesCrystals, 2020
A technique for direct study of the distribution of the applied voltage within a quantum cascade laser (QCL) has been developed. The detailed profile of the potential in the laser claddings and laser core region has been obtained by gradient scanning ...

The role of the cantilever in Kelvin probe force microscopy measurements

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2011
The role of the cantilever in quantitative Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) is rigorously analyzed. We use the boundary element method to calculate the point spread function of the measuring probe: Tip and cantilever.

Accurate determination of band tail properties in amorphous semiconductor thin film with Kelvin probe force microscopy

open access: yesAPL Materials, 2023
The disordered microscopic structure of amorphous semiconductors causes the formation of band tails in the density of states (DOS) that strongly affect charge transport properties.

Surface potential imaging and characterizations of a GaN p-n junction with Kelvin probe force microscopy

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2020
We applied Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) to characterize the p-n junction grown on hydride vapor-phase epitaxy GaN wafers with three different doses of the p-type dopant Mg.
