From the project
Objective: Gather as much data as possible about the TIA sensor of an STM, using both theory and experiment.
Objective: Gather as much data as possible about the TIA sensor of an STM, using both theory and experiment.
Deadline: September 30, 2025 for the first physical prototype
Three simulation tasks, in chronological order 1) Understand/simulate why coarse tip approach takes so long - Understand specific algorithms for moving the coarse motor (approach & retract) without frictional backlash causing a tip crash - Understand maximum speeds of piezo motors 2) Simulate imperfect DAC-driven cancellation with a fixed value compensation capacitor - Use the tip-sample capacitance of a plausible…
