ABSTRACTNano-scale Ga dots are deposited through the decomposition of triethylgallium (TEGa) adsorbed on HF-treated Si(111) surfaces using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM). The deposition of Ga dots of 2–13 nm in diameter is achieved by applying a negative voltage pulse to the sample, while no deposition is observed when a positive voltage pulse is applied. The conditions for Ga deposition are systematically investigated by varying the gap conductance, pulse height, and pulse width. A tentative model for the mechanism of Ga deposition is proposed, in which TEGa molecules are decomposed by the electric field between the tip and the sample.

Generally, the metal probe for NSOM (Near field scanning optical microscopy) or STM (Scanning Tunneling Microscope) was made with gold or tungsten. However, they were not suitable for the cell trap in our research for the reasons of cost, hardness, etc. In our research, these problems were solved by choosing brass as a material of a probe. Since the probe production by electrolytic polishing can change the shape of the top, tip angle, and taper length etc, we can propose a probe suitable for a cell trap. Therefore, in this examination, we propose the brass probe by electrolytic polishing with low cost and sufficient hardness for cell trap.
