Highly sensitive scanning microwave microscopy (SMM) with a capacitance resolution in the aF range [1] has been used to investigate the electrical properties of doped semiconductor nanostructures in the microwave frequency range from 1.5 GHz to 6 GHz at different dc offset biases. The microwave signal S11 reflected by the sample is related to the impedance of the sample. Superimposing an ac voltage in the kHz range one also gains information about the derivative of the S11 signal (dC/dV), which is dependent on the doping density in the semiconductor, circuit resistance, and reactance. We investigated a static random access memory (SRAM) cell and one cross-sectionally prepared Si epilayer structured sample [2]. The derivative of S11 strongly depends on the dc offset bias. The Si epilayer sample reveals the strongest dependence on fac and also on the biasing history during the SMM measurements.
