Scanning Quantum Dot Microscopy (SQDM) is a novel technique for the quantitative imaging of surface potential distributions with nanometer resolution[1,2]. The SQDM sensor is a molecular quantum dot (QD) attached to the tip of a non-contact AFM by molecular manipulation. Surface potential variations can change the QD charge state via gating which causes sharp dips in NC-AFM Δ f(Vbias) spectra. Mapping of the surface potential is thus possible via mapping of the Vbias values at which the respective dips appear. For this purpose we present a two-degree-of-freedom control approach, consisting of an extremum seeking controller and a feedforward control. The feedforward signal is based on a machine learning approach where a Gaussian process is used to capture the already scanned part of the image and compute a prediction for the next scan lines. The proposed control approach speeds up the scanning process by one order of magnitude and enables to scan large areas and strong potential variations. [1] C. Wagner et al. Phys. Rev.
