Liquid cell for investigation of a sample using atomic force microscopy of high resolving power

摘要

The atomic force microscopy liquid cell sample cell, allowing for high resolution, is a mechanical component that solves many of the fluid cell deficiencies currently used for these purposes. The essence of the invention is that the small size of the liquid cell (4) prevents evaporation of the liquid and accelerates the temperature stabilization of the system with minimal volume changes, while the fixed attachment of the sample carrier (2) with the threaded ring (1) prevents undesirable oscillations of the sample caused by the tip of the tip a piezoacoustic resonator of a microscope. Accurate positioning of the AFM tip at a predetermined location is facilitated by creating a grid under the translucent sample carrier using a screen (3) used for electron microscopy.
