A scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is an instrument for imaging surfaces at the atomic level. Its development in 1981 earned its inventors, Gerd Binnig and Heinrich Rohrer (at IBM Zürich), the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1986. For an STM, good resolution is considered to be 0.1nm lateral resolution and 0.01nm depth resolution. With this resolution, individual atoms within materials are routinely imaged and manipulated. The STM can be used not only in ultra-high vacuum but also in air, water, and various other liquid or gas ambients, and at temperatures ranging from near zero kelvin to a few hundred degrees Celsius.
The STM is based on the concept of quantum tunneling. When a conducting tip is brought very near to the surface to be examined, a bias (voltage difference) applied between the two can allow electrons to tunnel through the vacuum between them. The resulting tunneling current is a function of tip position, applied voltage, and the local density of states (LDOS) of the sample. Information is acquired by monitoring the current as the tip's position scans across the surface, and is usually displayed in image form. STM can be a challenging technique, as it requires extremely clean and stable surfaces, sharp tips, excellent vibration control, and sophisticated electronics, but nonetheless many hobbyists have built their own.

Surface studies with a scanning tunnelling microscope [english]
Archimedes animated this film for the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics. The film explains, how scientists observe surfaces at the atomic level with a scanning tunnelling microscope. An extremely fine tip "feels" its way over a surface at a constant distance of a few atomic diameters. The distance between the tip and the surface is regulated with the aid of what is called a tunnelling current, which flows between the tip and the sample when a voltage is applied between them.

The Microscope That Can Actually See Atoms
Most people know that you can't see atoms... or can you? With this special microscope, scientists actually can! In the late 1970s, two physicists in Switzerland set out to invent a new type of microscope using quantum physics that would allow them to do something no one had ever done before: see the individual atoms in a sheet of metal.

Quantum tunneling and how a scanning tunneling microscope works
Created by https://toutestquantique.fr/ and shown with permission.
This is an illustration for the Quantum Physics Encyclopedia at http://www.QuantumSkylight.com/.
This animated video shows the quantum tunneling effect and then, how tunneling is put to use in a scanning tunneling microscope. Quantum tunneling is the ability of a quantum particle to breach a barrier, even one which, according to the laws of classical physics, it should have insufficient energy to breach. It disappears on one side of the barrier and instantaneously appears on the other. Calculations also show that the particle disappears on one side and appears on the other without traversing the distance in between.

Die Regelung des Abstandes zwischen Spitze und Oberfläche erfolgt mit Hilfe des sogenannten Tunnelstroms, der zwischen Spitze und Probe fließt, wenn eine elektrische Spannung zwischen beiden angelegt wird.

This animated video shows the quantum tunneling effect and then, how tunneling is put to use in a scanning tunneling microscope. Quantum tunneling is the ability of a quantum particle to breach a barrier, even one which, according to the laws of classical physics, it should have insufficient energy to breach. It disappears on one side of the barrier and instantaneously appears on the other. Calculations also show that the particle disappears on one side and appears on the other without traversing the distance in between.
Scanning tunneling microscopes allow us to form images of objects as small as atoms, a task not possible with microscopes that rely on light. The scanning tunneling microscope (STM) has a stylus with a tip made of a single atom to probe or “feel” materials atom by atom. The microscope creates an image based on what the probe has felt.
In the STM, electrons tunnel across a gap (the barrier) between the tip of the probe and the surface being examined. Depending on the type of STM, the electrons might be generated by either the tip or the surface being examined. As they tunnel, the electrons generate an electrical signal. This signal is strengthened by an amplifier and fed into an electronic display screen that forms an image of the surface being examined.

Thank you for watching the biology techniques video lecture on Scanning tunneling microscopy.
Archimedes animated this film for the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics. The film explains, how scientists observe surfaces at the atomic level with a scanning tunnelling microscope. An extremely fine tip "feels" its way over a surface at a constant distance of a few atomic diameters. The distance between the tip and the surface is regulated with the aid of what is called a tunnelling current, which flows between the tip and the sample when a voltage is applied between them.
Oberflächenforschung mit dem Rastertunnelmikroskop
Archimedes animierte dieses Video für das Max-Planck-Institut für Mikrostrukturphysik. Das Video zeigt, wie Wissenschaftler atomare Oberflächen mit Hilfe eines Rastertunnelmikroskops untersuchen: Eine äußerst feine Spitze "tastet" eine Oberfläche in gleichbleibendem Abstand von wenigen Atomdurchmessern ab. Die Regelung des Abstandes zwischen Spitze und Oberfläche erfolgt mit Hilfe des sogenannten Tunnelstroms, der zwischen Spitze und Probe fließt, wenn eine elektrische Spannung zwischen beiden angelegt wird.

Most people know that you can't see atoms... or can you? With this special microscope, scientists actually can! In the late 1970s, two physicists in Switzerland set out to invent a new type of microscope using quantum physics that would allow them to do something no one had ever done before: see the individual atoms in a sheet of metal. Join Olivia Gordon for a peek into the tiny world of atoms in this fun new episode of SciShow!

This animated video shows the quantum tunneling effect and then, how tunneling is put to use in a scanning tunneling microscope. Quantum tunneling is the ability of a quantum particle to breach a barrier, even one which, according to the laws of classical physics, it should have insufficient energy to breach. It disappears on one side of the barrier and instantaneously appears on the other. Calculations also show that the particle disappears on one side and appears on the other without traversing the distance in between.
Scanning tunneling microscopes allow us to form images of objects as small as atoms, a task not possible with microscopes that rely on light. The scanning tunneling microscope (STM) has a stylus with a tip made of a single atom to probe or “feel” materials atom by atom. The microscope creates an image based on what the probe has felt.
In the STM, electrons tunnel across a gap (the barrier) between the tip of the probe and the surface being examined. Depending on the type of STM, the electrons might be generated by either the tip or the surface being examined. As they tunnel, the electrons generate an electrical signal. This signal is strengthened by an amplifier and fed into an electronic display screen that forms an image of the surface being examined.

A scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is an instrument for imaging surfaces at the atomic level. Its development in 1981 earned its inventors, Gerd Binnig and Heinrich Rohrer (at IBM Zürich), the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1986. For an STM, good resolution is considered to be 0.1nm lateral resolution and 0.01nm depth resolution. With this resolution, individual atoms within materials are routinely imaged and manipulated. The STM can be used not only in ultra-high vacuum but also in air, water, and various other liquid or gas ambients, and at temperatures ranging from near zero kelvin to a few hundred degrees Celsius.
The STM is based on the concept of quantum tunneling. When a conducting tip is brought very near to the surface to be examined, a bias (voltage difference) applied between the two can allow electrons to tunnel through the vacuum between them. The resulting tunneling current is a function of tip position, applied voltage, and the local density of states (LDOS) of the sample. Information is acquired by monitoring the current as the tip's position scans across the surface, and is usually displayed in image form. STM can be a challenging technique, as it requires extremely clean and stable surfaces, sharp tips, excellent vibration control, and sophisticated electronics, but nonetheless many hobbyists have built their own.
