Abstract

Temperature measurement error is the major factor to influence the precision for the nano-scale measurement in the areas of nano-structure characterization and testing. According to the materials thermophysical properties and the relationship of the air refractivity and optical measurement, metrological atomic force microscope (AFM) and the large range nano-measuring machine (NMM) are comprehensive studied. Firstly, high precision multipoint temperature measurement system is designed which can measure the temperature of AFM and NMM. The effect of ambient temperature variation is analyzed and evaluated in the course of scanning measurement. Secondly, the related technical problems of the temperature measurement in nano-scale measurement are studied to ensure the nano-structure characterization and measurement are accurate and reliable.
