Compound High-speed and High-precision AFM Measuring System

  • 摘要: 为实现原子力显微镜(AFM)高速高精度测量,提出了一种新型复合式AFM系统结构。该结构采用模块化设计,顶部模块采用具备大行程低速Z向扫描器的三轴压电纳米平台,底部模块采用具备小行程高速Z向扫描器(2 μm行程)的激光随动光路结构,底部模块与三轴纳米平台的低速Z向扫描器串行固定连接,因此可以在扫描过程中实现光路随动,同时2个不同带宽和行程的扫描器串行结构兼顾了大尺寸高度测量和高速扫描的需求,相对传统单扫描器扫描速度提升了4倍。在此基础上,针对高速Z向扫描器的非线性特性影响测量精度的问题,提出了一种扫描器灵敏度参数在线动态自整定的控制策略,消除因压电陶瓷非线性导致的灵敏度变化,从而实现高精度测量。

     

    Abstract: To achieve high-speed and high-precision measurements using atomic force microscopy (AFM), a novel compound AFM system structure is proposed. The structure adopts modular design, with the top module utilizing a three-axis piezoelectric nanoplatform with a large-stroke, low-speed Z-scanner, and the bottom module employing a laser-followed optical structure with a small-stroke, high-speed Z-scanner (2 μm stroke). The bottom module is serially connected and fixed to the low-speed Z-direction scanner of the three-axis nanoplatform, enabling optical path follow-up during the scanning process. This serial configuration of two scanners with differing bandwidths and strokes accommodates the requirements for large-scale height measurements and high-speed scanning, achieving a scanning speed that is 4 times greater than that of traditional single scanners. Additionally, an online and dynamic self-tuning control strategy for scanner sensitivity parameters is proposed to address the issue of nonlinearity in the high-speed Z-direction scanner, which affects measurement accuracy. This strategy effectively mitigates sensitivity variations caused by the nonlinearity of the piezoelectric ceramics, thereby enabling high-precision measurements.
