Sphere Probes for Scanning Thermal Microscopy — •Sophie Rodehutskors, Fridolin Geesmann, Philipp Thurau, and Achim Kittel — Insitut für Physik, Carl-von-Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg

Scanning thermal microscopes based on STM and AFM have been used for years to observe near-field mediated heat transfer. Using custom-built coaxial thermocouple tips in an STM setup, spatially highly resolved heat transfer measurements are possible [1]. The total heat transfer between a spherically approximated tip and a sample is expected to depend on the square of the tip's radius [2]. By attaching a 20 μm borosilicate sphere to such a coaxial thermocouple sensor, heat flux sensitivity is further increased in distance-dependence measurements of the heat transfer between a cooled sample and a tip at room temperature for different materials. These sensors can be used for highly resolved radiative heat transfer measurements as well as for heat conduction measurements through self-assembled monolayers of organic molecules.
