Tells the systems to measure and calculate the cantilever drive amplitude and frequency.
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
|
Start Frequency |
Starting point of the Auto Tune frequency sweep. |
|
End Frequency |
Ending point of the Auto Tune frequency sweep. |
|
Target Amplitude |
Targeted output signal amplitude at the photodiode detector. This value should not be confused with Drive amplitude, which is the amplitude applied directly to the cantilever itself (see Drive amplitude). Range and Settings:
NOTE: Dimension Series SPMs, nominal = 500 mV
Small Sample MultiMode SPMs, nominal = 500 mV |
|
Peak Offset |
Percentage of cantilever’s free-air resonant frequency to be automatically offset. Peak offset is used to compensate for changes in resonance before engagement due to the tip’s interaction with the surface after engagement. Range and Settings:
|
|
Minimum Q |
Q is the value defined by the amount of oscillation it takes for a wave to drop to 1/e (e = 2.718) of its amplitude value (i.e. a wave with an amplitude of ten would have a Q of 10/e, or 3.6788). Minimum Q establishes a minimum “width of peak” value allowed by the AutoTune function. |
