摘要:
A method for measuring surface properties according to the present invention includes the steps of: with distance control feedback applied so that a desired physical quantity to be measured that is attributed to an interaction between a probe and a sample is actually measured while changing a measured distance between the probe and the sample in accordance with a relationship between the desired physical quantity and the measured distance, (i) setting a set value, corresponding to the desired physical quantity, which serves to change the measured distance; and (ii) recording, for each set value thus set, a relationship between the measured distance changed by the set value set in the step (i) and a physical quantity measured with the probe and the sample placed at that measured distance. This allows precise and quick measurement of a physical quantity even in a region where the probe and the sample are very close to each other, while avoiding a collision between them.
摘要:
In a color television system including a plurality of index signal generating elements located outside an image area of an electron-impinged target surface in registry with successive color stripes located within the image area, the index signal is generated at the start of each raster scan and pulse repetition rate demodulated into a voltage signal representing the instantaneous speed of the electron beam scanning across the target surface. The voltage signal is stored in a charge transfer device for an interval of a subsequent raster and retrieved at the start of each horizontal trace for purposes of compensating for nonlinearities in the performance of beam deflection systems.
