In this paper,we proposed a control displacement method based on a polarization ellipsometirc interferometer and phase-locked loop technique. The proposed principle was set up. The experimental results of step and step displacements with a step value of 5 nm were presented. We also analyzed the resolution,the potential minimal displacement of the established system. The results show that the position error induced by the ellipticty deviation of the light beam becomes negligible thanks to our signal processing circuit with high-order filter. This method could be useful for many applications in nano dimensional metrology and semiconductor industry.展开更多

Since most of surface techniques probe the structure information inside the outermost surface plane, the subsurface structure information has been elusive in many studies. Using the profile imaging with aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy, the structure information in both the outermost layer and the sublayers of the CeO2(100) surface has been obtained. In addition to the normal structures that have been reported before, where the surface is Ce-or O-terminated, a metastable surface has been discovered. In the new structure, there is an atomic layer reversal between the outermost layer and the sublayer, giving a structure with O as the outermost layer for the stoichiometry of normal Ce-terminated surface. The charge redistribution for the polarity compensation has also been changed relative to the normal surface.展开更多
