See full text

A scanning probe microscope includes: a laser source 61; a photodetector 62; and a Y-drive mechanism 701 provided for at least either the laser source 61 or photodetector 62, for driving the object in a first direction (Y direction) in a plane perpendicular to an optical axis of the object. The Y-drive mechanism 701 includes: a Y-screw shaft 21 extending in the Y direction; a Y-guide shaft 23 extending parallel to the Y-screw shaft; a support member 24 for supporting the object, the support member coupled with the Y-screw shaft 21 via a nut member 211 screwed on the Y-screw shaft 21 as well as coupled with the Y-guide shaft 23 via a slide member 231 mounted on the Y-guide shaft 23 in a slidable manner; and a Y-drive motor 22 for rotating the Y-screw shaft 21.
