Query: Amplifier for scanning tunneling microscopy at MHz frequencies   Conventional scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is limited to a bandwidth of
circa 1kHz around DC. Here, we develop, build and test a novel amplifier
circuit capable of measuring the tunneling current in the MHz regime while
simultaneously performing conventional STM measurements. This is achieved with
an amplifier circuit including a LC tank with a quality factor exceeding 600
and a home-built, low-noise high electron mobility transistor (HEMT). The
amplifier circuit functions while simultaneously scanning with atomic
resolution in the tunneling regime, i.e. at junction resistances in the range
of giga-ohms, and down towards point contact spectroscopy. To enable high
signal-to-noise and meet all technical requirements for the inclusion in a
commercial low temperature, ultra-high vacuum STM, we use superconducting
cross-wound inductors and choose materials and circuit elements with low heat
load. We demonstrate the high performance of the amplifier by spatially mapping
the Poissonian noise of tunneling electrons on an atomically clean Au(111)
surface. We also show differential conductance spectroscopy measurements at
3MHz, demonstrating superior performance over conventional spectroscopy
techniques. Further, our technology could be used to perform impedance matched
spin resonance and distinguish Majorana modes from more conventional edge
states.
