- Before you go to the lab, read the optical trapping lab manual and the the Atomic Force Microscopy lab manual
- Attend an optical trap lab session.
- Attend an AFM lab session.
- Submit your report in PDF format to Stellar.
- Name the file: <lastname>DetectionLimitReport.pdf. (Substitute your surname for "<lastname>")
- The report should be answer-book style, like a problem set.
- Include computer code in an appendix at the end of the file. Do not submit code separately.
You will gather data as a group; however, reports must be individually authored. Everything in your report, including computer code, must be entirely your own work.
- Optical trap calibration
- Plot QPD responsivity, RQPD, versus power.
- What is your estimate of the trap stiffness as a function of power as determined by the three different calibration methods (equipartition, PSD roll-off, and Stokes drag)? Plot stiffness versus power for each method on the same set of axes.
- For the PSD method: plot a representative power spectrum and the corresponding model fit on the same set of axes.
- For the Stokes method: plot a representative force or displacement versus velocity dataset and the corresponding regression model on the same set of axes.
- Which method is superior? Explain why.
- What is the minimum detectable force as a function of power and bandwidth?
- AFM
- What is the responsivity of the AFM? Plot the z-scan data and linearized response on one set of axes with distance units on the horizontal axis and output voltage on the vertical axis. Over what range of displacements is the detector response reasonably approximated by a line?
- What is the stiffness of the cantilever you measured? Plot the spectrum you measured and the model fit on one set of axes.
- How does the stiffness computed from the cantilever's material properties compare to the value measured by the Sader method?
- What is the smallest force you could measure using that cantilever?
