An optimized harmonic probe with tailored resonant mode for multifrequency atomic force microscopy
摘要: For simultaneously measuring specimen’s surface morphology and material properties, multifrequency atomic force microscopy is often employed. In this kind of atomic force microscopy, if the probe’s higher-order resonance frequencies match the integer multiples of its fundamental frequency, the probe’s responses at such harmonic frequencies will be enhanced. Meanwhile, an enlarged effective slope during vibration at the probe’s tip results in an improved probe sensitivity. Moreover, increasing the probe’s natural frequency leads to a fast scanning speed. In this study, we propose to design cantilever probes that satisfy the aforementioned requirements via a structural optimization technique. A cantilever probe is represented by a three-layer symmetrical geometric model, and its width profile is continuously varied through the optimization procedure. Thereafter, an optimized design of probe considering the fifth harmonic is prepared by focused ion beam milling. Both simulation and experiment results show that the prepared probe agrees well with design requirements.

摘要: Accurately estimating the urbanization process is a key-factor for the actual implementation of the sustainable development goals identified by transnational institutions and agencies. In order to retrieve precise characterization of the anthropogenic extents and a sound human-environment interaction assessment, the analysis of Earth observations (EOs) plays a crucial role. Especially, the use of nonlinear spectral investigation can improve the description of geometrically and morphologically complex scenes, so that anthropogenic settlements and dynamics can be properly outlined. In this paper, we propose a novel method for directly assessing the distribution of materials and elements in hyperspectral images by means of a structural optimization approach. Experimental results show how the proposed approach is able to deliver accurate and reliable characterization of urban materials and extents.
