Problems solved by technology

A common disadvantage of traditional excitation techniques is that none of them are "non-contact" excitation methods, because in these excitation methods, the microcantilever must be bound to a piezoelectric transducer (or other mechanical oscillator), electrodes, or permanent on the magnet
However, ultrasonic excitation has two important disadvantages compared to laser excitation: (1) It is difficult to achieve focusing
The mechanical characteristics of ultrasonic waves that use air as the propagation medium determine that it is difficult to focus on the micro-scale micro-cantilever beam, which has the disadvantage of low energy utilization
(2) Cannot be applied in a vacuum environment
The micro-scale micro-cantilever has the characteristics of small size and high resonance frequency, so some macro-scale technologies will no longer be applicable

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for remotely exciting micrometer-scale micro-cantilever probes to resonate by using laser. By applying pulse laser with certain frequency for radiation onto surfaces of the micrometer-scale micro-cantilever probes and producing thermal stress in the micrometer-scale micro-cantilever probes under the thermal effect of the laser, the resonance excitation of the micrometer-scale micro-cantilever probes is realized. The frequency of the pulse laser is 1 / n of the resonance frequency of the micro-cantilever probes, wherein n is a number within 1-10. The micrometer-scale micro-cantilever probes are excited to resonate by using n-order Fourier harmonic waves of the thermal stress produced in the micro-cantilever probes under the thermal effect of the laser.
