A Time and Spatially Resolved Study of the Thermal Response of the Tip of a Scanning Tunneling Microscope on Pulsed Optical Excitation — •Georg Alexander Traeger1,3, Taner Esat1,2, Martin Wenderoth3, and Jungseok Chae1,21Center for Quantum Nanoscience (QNS), Institute for Basic Science (IBS), Seoul, Republic of Korea — 2Department of Physics, Ewha Womans University, Seoul, Republic of Korea — 3IV.

Combining Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and pulsed optical excitation was already envisioned in the early 1990s. [1] In this approach, disentangling thermal effects due to heating of the tip from optically induced dynamics of the sample has always been a major issue. Grafström et al. [2] sytematically investigated the thermal response on sinusoidal stimulus up to 100 kHz. Only recently, Kloth et al. [3] estimated thermal effect of pulsed optical excitation based on the shaken pulse pair excitation up to several nanoseconds. Using an electro-optical modulator, we investigate the thermal response of a W tip/Cu(111) surface from the low up to the high frequency regime. In combination with the raster-scanned laser focus, we have access to both time and spatially thermal response of the tip under optical excitation. [1] Weiss et al.
