The nucleation and growth of thin films deposited on to carbon substrate by ion beam sputtering

Summary A hybrid scanning transmission electron/scanning tunnelling microscope vacuum system is introduced, which allows freeze drying and metal coating of biological samples and their simultaneous observation by scanning transmission electron microscopy and scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM). Different metal coatings and STM tips were analysed to obtain the highest possible resolution for such a system. Bovine liver catalase was used as a test sample and the STM results are compared to a molecular scale model.
