Spiral scanning: an alternative to conventional raster scanning in high-speed Scanning Probe Microscopes

A spiral scanning method for high-speed Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is described in this paper. In this method, the sample is scanned in a spiral pattern instead of the conventional raster pattern. A spiral scan can be produced by applying single frequency cosine and sine signals with slowly varyi...
