Cryogenic Ultrahigh Vacuum Scanning Tunneling Microscopy

Abstract

This report describes recent progress towards the development of a variable temperature cryogenic UHV-STM. The transition from STM-based nanolithography and the loss of a good graduate student (to Stanford) has slowed this project. However, a part-time postdoc has been hired and a new student is being recruited. The apparatus is now essentially complete as a stand alone system, and the testing sequence has begun.
