Abstract: A scanning probe microscope includes a light source, a detector, a housing, an opening and closing door, an opening and closing sensor, a control unit, and the like. The opening and closing door is provided in the housing. The control unit 16 also functions as the light intensity change processing unit 164. In the scanning probe microscope, when the opening and closing sensor detects opening and closing of the opening and closing door, the light intensity change processing unit automatically changes the intensity of light irradiated from the light source based on a detection result of the opening and closing sensor. Therefore, it is possible to omit light intensity adjustment work performed manually by the user. As a result, the workability of the user when using the scanning probe microscope 1 can be improved.

Abstract: Provided is a scanning probe microscope being able to shorten an observation time of a minute observation object. Main measurement is performed to acquire a surface image of a sample based on a detection signal in a measurement range of a plurality of lines by repeating, for each line, processing of scanning a cantilever at predetermined second intervals in a Y-direction after acquiring the detection signal at predetermined first intervals while scanning the cantilever on a line having a predetermined length along an X-direction. Preliminary measurement is performed to acquire a surface image of the sample by acquiring the detection signal at intervals wider than the first intervals or scanning the cantilever in the Y-direction at intervals wider than the second intervals before the main measurement, the surface image of the sample being coarser than the surface image in the main measurement.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a control unit that creates a plurality of learning information items including an input image and a teacher image as an expected value by image-processing the input image in accordance with a scenario described with a program code, and supplies the created plurality of learning information items to a machine learning module that composes an image processing algorithm by machine learning.

Abstract: When trace image data is obtained while a probe is used to scan a region on a sample in a forward direction and retrace image data is obtained while the same region is scanned in the reverse direction, a deviation information storage unit stores deviation detected by a deviation detection unit. This deviation is an indication of the difference between the distance between the probe and the sample and a target value for the distance at a given point in time. An image data selection unit compares the deviation during forward scanning and the deviation during reverse scanning for each measurement point, selects the image data obtained during scanning that has the smaller deviation, and stores the same to a storage region of an image data storage unit as selected image data.

Abstract: A sample holder includes a sample container and a fixing member. The fixing member is inserted into the sample container in a state in which a sample is placed, and fixes the sample by sandwiching the sample between the fixing member and a bottom surface of the sample container. At this time, a peripheral edge portion of the fixing member is elastically deformed by being inserted into the sample container, and the fixing member sandwiches the sample by its elastic force. Therefore, even when the sample is placed in the sample container in the state of being immersed in a liquid, the sample can be held in a stable state by the fixing member.
