    Fascinating. You failed because you did not start with a working single pixel. You need to make a working single pixel to prove your semiconductor material works. Probably a Schottky diode does not work well. You should not try to make it small until you prove your concept.

    Time lapse?!. So you didn't even cut anything. You just dragged it along. I'm assuming you realize the difference between actual cut and a one-time scrape. Show me the other factors involved when it's in motion. 👎

    Cutting is shearing the material, which happens whether it's continuous or not. WTF is a "one-time scrape" lol, get outta here.

    Love CEDs! 1970s analogue tech couldn't make use of it, but the feature size is *_so_* far below the wavelengths of visible light that optical discs like CD/DVD/BluRay could never compare - terabytes or even petabytes on a 12" disc!

  • @randysterbentz5599
    @randysterbentz5599Күн бұрын

    Just out of curiosity, why are you going to such high voltages? Is that common in literature? I'm scared to put anything above a few volts on my devices, though I'm typically working with graphene heterostructures. When you said 400 V, I was surprised!

  • @BreakingTaps
    @BreakingTapsКүн бұрын

    No good reason 😅 The literature doesn't go above like 30v for these kinds of devices. I just wanted to see what would happen to be honest. And I did notice that the curves looked nicer (less noisy, more response) at higher voltages which helped make it more noticeable on camera. But 1000% not the correct voltages for these kinds of devices. :)

    There are lots of exciting measurement techniques that are basically expansions of AFM. I've extensive used s-SNOM and nano-FTIR in my research, where you are using the tip to enable infrared measurements at nanoscale spatial resolution

  • @BreakingTaps

    Agreed! It's really neat how many offshoots there are from AFM. I've been doing a lot of reading about thermal probe lithography lately, also a very cool field which is basically AFM but hot 😅

    In high school I took a printing a publishing course, and part of it was on screen printing. We used photo lithology to make the stencils. You would lay out the pattern in light sensitive paper, as a negative, and then shine laser on it for 20 minutes. After placing the cued light sensitive paper on the cloth screen, you could wash away with a forced water the non-protected areas and therefore create the stencil to screen print through. I'm sure it's not the modern method for screen printing stencils, but it was cool to do by hand, and so many of those principles of lithology carry over.
