  • Patent number: 10197596
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided for automatically controlling and stabilizing aspects of a scanning probe microscope (SPM), such as an atomic force microscope (AFM), using Peak Force Tapping (PFT) Mode. In an embodiment, a controller automatically controls periodic motion of a probe relative to a sample in response to a substantially instantaneous force determined, and automatically controls a gain in a feedback loop. A gain control circuit automatically tunes a gain based on separation distances between a probe and a sample to facilitate stability. Accordingly, instability onset is quickly and accurately determined during scanning, thereby eliminating the need of expert user tuning of gains during operation.

  • Publication number: 20170227846
    Abstract: The present teachings relate to compositions for forming a negative-tone photopatternable dielectric material, where the compositions include, among other components, an organic filler and one or more photoactive compounds, and where the presence of the organic filler enables the effective removal of such photoactive compounds (after curing, and during or after the development step) which, if allowed to remain in the photopatterned dielectric material, would lead to deleterious effects on its dielectric properties.
