Scanning frequency comb microscopy—A new method in scanning probe microscopy
A method for superimposing a microwave frequency comb (MFC) on the DC tunneling current in a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is described in which a mode-locked laser is focused on the tunneling junction. The MFC is caused by optical rectification of

A method for measuring the contact area in instrumented indentation testing by tip scanning probe microscopy imaging [PDF]
The determination of the contact area is a key step to derive mechanical properties such as hardness or an elastic modulus by instrumented indentation testing. Two families of procedures are dedicated to extracting this area: on the one hand, post mortem

Mapping intrinsic electromechanical responses at the nanoscale via sequential excitation scanning probe microscopy empowered by deep data [PDF]
Ever-increasing hardware capabilities and computation powers have enabled acquisition and analysis of big scientific data at the nanoscale routine, though much of the data acquired often turn out to be redundant, noisy and/or irrelevant to the problems ...
