A very low temperature STM for the local spectroscopy of mesoscopic structures
N. Moussy, H. Courtois, B. Pannetier
Abstract
We present the design and operation of a very-low temperature Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) working at 60 mK in a dilution refrigerator. The STM features both atomic resolution and micron-sized scanning range at low temperature. This work is the first experimental realization of a local spectroscopy of mesoscopic structures at very low temperature. We present high-resolution current-voltage characteristics of tunnel contacts and the deduced local density of states of hybrid Superconductor-Normal metal systems.
