Embodiment 1

[0033] Take a piece of gold wire, cut it mechanically to make tip B, and assemble it into the scanning head with four-channel microcurrent amplifier; use Au(111) single crystal electrode as substrate C, soak substrate C in 1mM 4, The self-assembled film was formed in 4'-bipyridyl aqueous solution for 5 minutes, and then placed in the aqueous solution for 5 minutes to wash away excess molecules, dried and placed in the sample stage. First drive the motor so that the needle tip approaches the Au(111) substrate. After reaching the tunnel current region, the motor stops working. At this time, the piezoelectric ceramic tube of the scanning head starts to work. By changing the x, y and z directions added to the piezoelectric ceramic A The voltage can drive the tip B to move in three directions of x, y and z. When the mechanical and thermal drift of the whole device is almost negligible, keep the needle tip B and the substrate C at a bias voltage of 200mV (denoted as V), drive the ne...

Abstract

The invention relates to a micro-current detection device, in particular to a micro-current detection device for a single-molecule conductance measurement system. The micro-current detection device is provided with a see-saw circuit, a four-section current-voltage conversion circuit, pre-filter circuits, in-phase amplifying circuits, post-filter circuits and an optoelectronic isolation ADC acquisition card, wherein the four-section current-voltage conversion circuit is circumscribed with a shielded input tunnel current signal; the four-section current-voltage conversion circuit is output to an STM controller through the see-saw circuit to be used for imaging control; 4 paths of voltage signals of the four-section current-voltage conversion circuit after being subjected to current-voltage conversion sequentially pass through the pre-filter circuits, the in-phase amplifying circuits, the post-filter circuits and the four-channel optoelectronic isolation ADC data acquisition card clamped with an input port of a PC; the PC automatically judges the present current value calculated by selecting a voltage result at the same time through software. The micro-current detection device is wide in measuring range, self-adaptive, high in sensitivity, large in dynamic range and high in linearity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a micro-current detection device, in particular to a micro-current detection device for a single-molecule conductance measurement system which is mainly applied to but not limited to a scanning tunneling microscope molecular conductance measurement system. Background technique [0002] With the development of split junction metal quantum conductance and single molecular junction conductance detection technologies such as scanning tunneling microscope split junction (STM-BJ) technology and mechanically controlled split junction (MCBJ) technology, researchers have begun to use this method to detect metal atoms Line conductance and single-molecule junction conductance, among which the scanning tunneling microscope split junction method (STM-BJ) is the most widely used.
