Annotation | The reasons and mechanism of the destructive effect of the electrostatic interaction forces of silicon probe and dielectric surfaces are established in the paper at the investigation of the surface microgeometry and mechanical characteristics by the atomic-force microscopy method. Calculation of the electrostatic interaction forces of two silicon surfaces is carried out and the destructive effect of electrostatic discharge appearing as a result of triboelectric effect is determined. The module of removal of electrostatic charge is proposed. Its principle of operation consists in the formation of the conduction band in the place of contact of two dielectrics by the multiphoton ionization. It is shown that application of such method of neutralization of residual triboelectricity improves accuracy, reliability, and reproducibility of the scanning results. |
