[Spm] RE: AFM calibration

[Peter Eaton]

Dear SPMers,

The last digest of the spm mailing list contained two messages about calibration, an important topic in AFM.

I can't answer Don's question, as I've never heard of anyone actually doing recalibration of AFM standards, but certainly they can getcontaminated quite easily which could change the results.


I know that VLSI standards do sample recertification. 

I've created a list of standards for AFM at:

 

http://knol.google.com/k/peter-eaton/spm-standards/25laaiqlcn2x8/6#

 

Which includes the link to VLSI as well as all the other standards suppliers I have found. The VLSI site has a few comments about recertification of standards which may be of interest. 

If anyone knows of any standards I forgot to include in my list, they can add them directly to the knol page, or let me know about it and I will add them.

 

This list wil be published in my forthcoming book soon, so any changes should be made soon.

Regards,

Pete.
