T1 - Phase and amplitude patterns in DySEM mappings of vibrating microstructures N2 - We use a dynamic scanning electron microscope (DySEM) to analyze the movement of oscillating micromechanical structures. A dynamic secondary electron (SE) signal is recorded and correlated to the oscillatory excitation of scanning force microscope (SFM) cantilever by means of lock-in amplifiers. We show, how the relative phase of the oscillations modulate the resulting real part and phase pictures of the DySEM mapping. This can be used to obtain information about the underlying oscillatory dynamics. We apply the theory to the case of a cantilever in oscillation, driven at different flexural and torsional resonance modes. This is an extension of a recent work (Schr¨oter et al 2012 Nanotechnology 23 435501), where we reported on a general methodology to distinguish nonlinear features caused by the Imaging process from those caused by cantilever motion.

T1 - Determination of electric properties of heterogeneous systems using the contact and noncontact scanning force microscopy (SFM) N2 - With an extended contact and non-contact mode scanning force microscope samples with different heterogeneous electrical properties can be characterized. The contact mode method allows the determination of local electric conductivities of heterogeneous systems at the sample surfaces. An interpretation of this behaviour can be obtained in combination with other SFM modes such as topography, friction and compliance used simultaneously. The non-contact mode SFM allows to get more information about the local surface charge of heterogeneous samples.

A1 - Sturm, Heinz T1 - Analytical and numerical analysis of imaging mechanism of dynamic scanning electron microscopy N2 - The direct observation of small oscillating structures with the help of a scanning electron beam is a new approach to study the vibrational dynamics of cantilevers and microelectromechanical systems. In the scanning electron microscope, the conventional signal of secondary electrons (SE, dc part) is separated from the signal response of the SE detector, which is correlated to the respective excitation frequency for vibration by means of a lock-in amplifier. The dynamic response is separated either into images of amplitude and phase shift or into real and imaginary parts. Spatial resolution is limited to the diameter of the electron beam. The sensitivity limit to vibrational motion is estimated to be sub-nanometer for high integration times. Due to complex imaging mechanisms, a theoretical model was developed for the interpretation of the obtained measurements, relating cantilever shapes to interaction processes consisting of incident electron beam, electron–lever interaction, emitted electrons and detector response. Conclusions drawn from this new model are compared with numerical results based on the Euler–Bernoulli equation.

Our results reveal the position instability of TNP molecules at the border of molecular layers under normal ambient conditions. The observed phenomena are of great interest for exploring the origin of hot-spot generation on the surface of energetic materials. On the basis of the explored properties of TNP crystal, a plausible mechanism of hot-spot formation upon weak initiation at the nanoscale is proposed.

A scanning electron microscope with an attached energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (SEM/EDX) is highlighted as a powerful tool for the advanced characterization of such complex fire residues, since it offers high resolution in combination with both good depth of field and analysis of chemical composition. Two examples are presented: First, comprehensive SEM/EDX investigation on a complex structured fire residue of glass fibre reinforced polyamide 6,6 (PA 66-GF) flame retarded by diethylaluminium phosphinate, melamine polyphosphate and some zinc borate. A multilayered surface crust (thickness ~ 24 µm) covers a rather hollow area stabilized by GF glued together. The resulting efficient thermal insulation results in self-extinguishing before pyrolysis is completed, even under forced-flaming combustion. Second, sophisticated, quasi online SEM/EDX imaging of the formation of residual protection layer in layered silicate epoxy resin nanocomposites (LSEC). Burning specimens were quenched in liquid nitrogen for subsequent analyses. Different zones were distinguished in the condensed phase characterized by distinct processes such as melting and ablation of organic material, as well as agglomeration, depletion, exfoliation and reorientation of the LS.

Principles of operation N2 - Applying a high-frequency lateral vibration between the sample surface and the tip of a scanning force microscope (SFM), a harmonically modulated lateral (friction) force image can be obtained using lock-in techniques. The principles of operation are explained, in particular the dramatic decrease of image artefacts generally caused by topography cross-talk and laser beam interference. Flat interfaces between the two immiscible polymers, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and polystyrene (PS), are prepared on a sodium chloride single crystal from the melt. These samples are used to evaluate the appropriate model for the tip-sample interaction geometry. The relationship between frictional and normal force does not follow Amonton's law. This shows that a single-asperity interaction between the tip and sample surface can be considered. Using the new technique, local measurements of shear strength and Young's modulus can be performed.

On the one hand the very old hot spot theory predicts, that the size of such hot spot could be in the range of a molecule. The initiation of an EM could start by mechanical excitation, i.e. friction, and continues driven by an exothermal chemical reaction. Following such phenomena on the molecular scale with an imaging method such as AFM should enable us to separate several steps of ignition, if there are any. The experiments showed that HMX mainly undergoes a plastic deformation without further consequences. TNP however showed self healing in the wear track after scratching and simultaneously the destruction of a crystal edge outside the wear track. Additionally nanoparticles appear, tribologists call this "third body formation", which are proven to have a different chemical composition as the original TNP. The self healing effect on the surface is verified with experiments on self diffusion of TNP molecules to and fro the free edges of the crystal. The conclusion is that the formation of a hot spot can be shown to consist of several subsequent steps, separated temporally and locally. The goal to excite the thermal decomposition of a whole TNP crystal (nanoexplosion) was yet not reached due to unfavourable conditions related to thermal conductivity and build-up of pressure.

T1 - A new molecular understanding of the thermal degradation of PA 66 doped with metal oxides: Experiment and computation N2 - The thermal molecular degradation of polyamide 66 (PA 66) doped with (partially supported) metal oxide particles (Fe2O3, ZnO, Al2O3) was investigated qualitatively and quantitatively using common analysis techniques like thermogravimetry coupled with IR-spectroscopic evolved gas analysis (TGA-FTIR). Using pyrolysis coupled with gas chromatography mass spectrometry (Py-GC-MS), qualitative conclusions were drawn about the complex hydrocarbon products. However, the combination of TGA with solid-phase extraction, followed by thermal desorption gas chromatography mass spectrometry (TED-GC-MS), allows qualitative and even semi-quantitative conclusions about the decomposition pathway of PA 66 in the presence of various metal oxide particles. The investigations under inert conditions showed that the presence of metal particles increases the rate of decarboxylation and deamination reactions, as well as the formation rate of cyclopentanone and pyridine derivatives. These species are a consequence of various condensation reactions. The condensation reactions release a large amount of water, thus triggering the hydrolysis of PA 66. Molecular thermal degradation mechanisms were developed for the main decomposition as well as for the condensation reactions and supported by quantum chemical calculations. The catalytic effect of the metal oxides in PA 66 increases in the following order: PA 66 = PA 66 – Al2O3 < PA 66 – Fe2O3 < PA 66 – ZnO.
