Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Based on combined scanning tunneling microscopy and atomic force microscopy, we have developed time-resolved-scanning probe microscopy to measure the dynamics of local electron/hole-relaxation. The principle of our method has been verified, using semiconductor surface as the test sample. It was revealed that our system can detect the tip-sample electrostatic force modulated by the local transient electron/hole. On the other hand, the experiment on the metal surface revealed that the modulation is due to the electron/hole within the probe tip. That is, at present, our system detects the relaxation of electron/hole within the probe tip, not the sample surface.
