How can I solve the AFM landing problem?

13 March 2024 1 1K Report

The landing process of the AFM (NT-MDT) we use does not work. Although the computer program appears to be running, but it does not come close to your fingertips. We cannot observe any mechanical movement. Be more than happy to help with this.

Alessandro Gambardella

Is the screw on the z axis rotating during the approach? Is the sample sufficiently flat to approach the surface with no macroscopic asperities which may interrupt or block the piezo movement?
