    摘要: A method of producing a circular island even if pollution by dirt or dust affects a mask pattern. A circular island is formed by etching silicon oxide film formed on a silicon substrate using a resist mask, and an acute angle portion of unevenness of the pattern outline comprising silicon oxide film is removed so as to obtain a smooth and substantially circular pattern by additional etching using buffered hydrofluoric acid solution (BHF) after removing the resist mask.

    摘要: A self-detecting type cantilever for an atomic force microscope (AFM) has an electro-flexural conversion element for converting a flexural amount of the cantilever into an electric current or voltage, a temperature measurement element disposed at a front end portion of the cantilever for measuring a temperature, and a heating element disposed at the front end portion of the cantilever for heating the temperature measurement element. The temperature measurement element and the heating element are superposed with each other on a main face of the cantilever via an electrical insulating layer. As a result, even if the amount of electric energy supplied to the heating element is reduced, it is possible to effectively supply an amount of heat necessary for measurement to the temperature measurement element. Therefore, by minimizing the heat to be supplied to a sample and the cantilever, the respondency of measurement is improved and temperature measurement can be performed with a high degree of accuracy.

    摘要: A cantilever probe for scanning a sample surface comprises a cantilever having a free end and a fixed end. A first support section is disposed at the free end and extends along a first plane. A probe is formed on the first support section for scanning movement relative to the sample surface. A second support section is disposed at the fixed end and extends along a second plane different from the first plane. A beam section interconnects the first support member and the second support member to one another and extends along a third plane different from the first and second planes.

The multiprobe has a plurality of cantilever probes supported by a support member. Each of the cantilevers is individually-selectable for use in conducting scanning probe operations, and each has a different resonance frequency from the others. In a preferred embodiment, portions of the respective cantilevers that are brought into contact with a sample to conduct scanning probe operations are arranged in a substantially linear configuration. A given one of the cantilevers is selected by vibrating the multiprobe at the resonance frequency of the given cantilever.
