Abstract

While driving the probe of a scan probe microscope at a very high speed, the contact between the probe and a sample is optically detected, and quick probe detection adapted to samples, such as a large semiconductor wafer and a flat display substrate, which cannot be driven is enabled. A parallel light beam for optically detecting the contact between the probe and the sample and optically vibrating the probe is directed to a region below the objective for observing the sample and focused on a fixed point on a cantilever by means of a micro focusing lens so attached below the objective as to be driven with the cantilever, thus irradiating the sample with the light beam. Therefore, even when the cantilever is moved, the fixed point on the cantilever can be irradiated at all times. Further, since the focusing lens is very small, the sample can be scanned with the cantilever at high speed without influencing the dynamic characteristics of the cantilever drive unit so as to observe and measure the sample.
