Microscopy Controllers PAGE 346 Hard- and Software features ASC500 SPM controller and Daisy software interface LabVIEW™ Control The LabView interface provides full control over all ASC500 features with the following benefits: measurement automatization user-defined experiments easy integration with 3rd party instrumentation Full package of LabView drivers is included in every unit at no extra price. The LabView package comes with many programming examples such as: automatic slope compensation automatic temperature monitoring with background scan voltage adjustment large area scan via sequence of images with intermediate coarse steps Spectroscopy The ASC500 features advanced spectroscopy techniques such as z spectroscopy and bias voltage spectroscopy. These measurements are supported by an internal Lock-In and a limiter functionality which drastically reduces the likelihood of a tip crash. Spectroscopy measurements can be automatically triggered on line, grid, or point-by-point paths. Combinations of spectroscopies can be defined in action lists.
