■ Operat ion flow chart
The following is the flow chart showing MFM observation.
■ Checking before an approach
Before performing an approach, make sure that preparation has been completed
according to the procedure in Sect. 5.3, "Preparing for Measurement."
• Is the MFM cantilever properly mounted on the cantilever holder?
• Has coarse approach been executed in such a way that the distance between the
cantilever tip and the specimen surface is within 0.3 mm or less?
• Is the Z stage position within the approachable range?
• Is the SUM value of the AFM amplifier unit at its maximum (–5.0 V)?
■ Adjusting the photodiode position
Carry out the procedure in Section 5.4.1, "Adjusting the photodiode position."
