摘要
A scanning force microscope (SFM) with light fiber sensor was constructed. The SFM operates in the repulsive contact mode. Three pictures have been measured simultaneously: the topography and the 1st and 2nd harmonic. The 1st harmonic can be related to piezoelectricity and polarization. The 2nd harmonic is correlated with electrostriction and permittivity. The conductive tip of the SFM was used to polarize lead zirconate titanate (PZT) films and to image their domain structure on a nanometer scale. In addition, a writing experiment has been performed.
