Outline of Final Research Achievements

The atomic structure of interface between solid metal and liquid metal plays an important role in alloying and crystal growth processes. Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) in liquid environment has been greatly improved in this decade. Most of the studies have been carried out by using a Si cantilever as its force sensor, where its deflection was optically detected. However, it cannot be applied for non-transparent liquid including liquid metal. Recently, we have reported atomic-resolution imaging in viscous liquid by quartz tuning fork (QTF) sensor. Since the deflection of the qPlus sensor is electrically detected, the transparency of the liquid is not required. In this work, we have successfully achieved atomic-resolution imaging on liquid-metal/alloy interfaces.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

溶融金属と固体金属との界面での合金形成過程は,溶融金属メッキや半田付けなど実用上重要である.しかし,溶融金属は光学的に不透明であることから,その界面はいわゆる「埋もれた界面」であり,直接的な可視化は極めて困難である.本課題ではその界面構造を原子分解能で可視化する技術の開発に成功したものであり,実用上・学術的双方において重要な成果であると言える.
