Abstract

See full text

An electron vibrometer includes: an electron source providing a beam of primary electrons; a cantilever including: a receiver portion including: a gradient in thickness, a gradient in mass, atomic number of constituent atoms, or a combination thereof, the cantilever being disposed relative to the electron source such that the receiver portion of the cantilever receives the beam of primary electrons, and produces a plurality of scattered electrons from the receiver portion in response to receipt of the beam of primary electrons; and a charged particle detector that receives the plurality of scattered electrons from the receiver portion, and produces a detector signal comprising an amplitude that varies in relation to the gradient subject to receipt of the primary electrons, and the detector signal providing determination of the displacement of the cantilever.
