    Notes: Measurement of the light emission spectrum from a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) requires a long exposure time due to its extremely low intensity, and thermal drift of the tip during the exposure time limits the spatial resolution. To improve the resolution, a computer controlled servomechanism that locks the STM tip over a target position has been developed. We have measured the light emission spectra from individual nanometer scale structures on an evaporated Au film with and without this mechanism, and demonstrated the effectiveness of the servomechanism. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Niobium tips for use in scanning tunneling microscope (STM) light emission measurements have been fabricated by an electrochemical etching method. The typical radius of curvature of the tip is less than 100 nm. The Nb tip has been demonstrated to be capable of producing STM images of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite and Au(110)-(2×1) surfaces with atomic spatial resolution. It has been confirmed by STM light emission spectroscopy that the front of the Nb tip becomes superconducting for temperatures below the superconducting transition temperature of Nb. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Scanning tunneling microscope (STM) light emission spectroscopy with picosecond time resolution has been developed and applied to the measurement of time-resolved spectra of STM light emission from an evaporated Au film. The spectra consist of two components in the time-energy domain. The first component is excited by the picosecond tunneling current pulses that are generated by picosecond laser irradiation at the STM tip-sample gap. The second component arises from the plane-wave surface plasmon polaritons that are excited at the Au surface by the laser and made radiative by the presence of the STM tip that breaks the translational symmetry of the surface. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have investigated the relation between the scanning-tunneling-microscope (STM) tip shape and the efficiency of STM light emission. The light intensity radiated by a current source placed in the tip-sample gap of the STM was calculated for various shapes of the tip using the finite differential time domain method. We found that the highest emission efficiency is obtained for the pyramidal tip with the flat top of 4 nm width and the apex angle of 90 °C. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.
