Abstract: We have developed a method for the examination of atomic force microscopy (scanning force microscopy) tips using a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (TEM). The tips can be imaged in a nondestructive way, enabling one to observe the shape of an atomic force microscope probe in the vicinity of the apex with high resolution. We have obtained images of atomic force microscopy probes with a resolution on the order of 1 nm. The tips can be imaged repeatedly, so one can examine tips before and after use. We have found that the tip can become blunted with use, the rate of wear depending upon the sample and tip materials and the scanning conditions. We have also found that the tips easily accrue contamination. We have studied both commercially produced tips, as well as tips grown by electron beam deposition. Direct imaging in the TEM should prove useful for image deconvolution methods because one does not have to make any assumptions concerning the general shape of the tip profile.

Copper oxide and cobalt oxide (CuO, Co3O4) nanocrystals (NCs) have been successfully prepared in a short time using microwave irradiation without any postannealing treatment. Both kinds of nanocrystals (NCs) have been prepared using copper nitrate and cobalt nitrate as the starting materials and distilled water as the solvent. The resulted powders of nanocrystals (NCs) were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements. The obtained results confirm the presence of the both of oxides nanopowders produced during chemical precipitation using microwave irradiation. A strong emission under UV excitation is obtained from the prepared CuO and Co3O4nanoparticles. The results show that the nanoparticles have high dispersion and narrow size distribution. The line scans of atomic force microscopy (AFM) images of the nanocrystals (NCs) sprayed on GaAs substrates confirm the results of both X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Furthermore, vibrational studies have been carried out using Raman spectroscopic technique. Specific Raman peaks have been observed in the CuO and Co3O4nanostructures, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the peaks indicates a small particle size of the nanocrystals.

Graphite encapsulated nickel nanoparticles were prepared by ball milling andsubsequently annealing a mixture of expanded graphite with nickel powders. The products were characterized by transmission electron microscope and X-ray diffraction. The formation mechanism of the products was discussed. Results show that the products have a size range of 20-150 nm. The graphite and nickel in the products all exhibit a high crystallinity.

Cdte Thin Films

ABSTRACTIn this article we report the first nanoparticle-derived route to smooth, dense, phase-pure CdTe thin films. Capped CdTe nanoparticles were prepared by injection of a mixture of Cd(CH3)2, (n-C8H17)3 PTe and (n-C8H17)3P into (n-C8H17)3PO at elevated temperatures. The resultant nanoparticles 32-45 Å in diameter were characterized by x-ray diffraction, UV-Vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. CdTe thin film deposition was accomplished by dissolving CdTe nanoparticles in butanol and then spraying the solution onto SnO2-coated glass substrates at variable susceptor temperatures. Smooth and dense CdTe thin films were obtained using growth temperatures approximately 200 °C less than conventional spray pyrolysis approaches. CdTe films were characterized by x-ray diffraction, UV-Vis spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and Auger electron spectroscopy. An increase in crystallinity and average grain size as determined by x-ray diffraction was noted as growth temperature was increased from 240 to 300 °C. This temperature dependence of film grain size was further confirmed by atomic force microscopy with no remnant nanocrystalline morphological features detected. UV-Vis characterization of the CdTe thin films revealed a gradual decrease of the band gap (i.e., elimination of nanocrystalline CdTe phase) as the growth temperature was increased with bulk CdTe optical properties observed for films grown at 300 °C.
