Method for determining tip stability with potentially invasive operations

Variants

ExtendedMonitoring

Extended signal monitoring over time with statistical analysis

Fields

signal: Signal

duration: Duration

sampling_interval: Duration

stability_threshold: f32

BiasSweepResponse

Bias sweep response analysis (potentially destructive)

This method starts a scan, then manually sweeps the bias voltage while monitoring the specified signal (typically frequency shift) for sudden changes that indicate tip instability. Unlike BiasSweepResponse, this keeps Z-controller ON and uses manual bias control instead of the Nanonis bias sweep module.

Fields

signal: Signal

Signal to monitor (typically frequency shift)

bias_range: (f32, f32)

Bias voltage range to sweep (e.g., (-2.0, 2.0) V)

bias_steps: u16

Number of bias steps in the sweep

step_duration: Duration

Duration to wait at each bias step for signal to settle

allowed_signal_change: f32

Absolute threshold for sudden change detection (e.g., 0.5 Hz) If abs(signal - baseline) > threshold, mark as unstable

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for TipStabilityMethod

fn clone(&self) -> TipStabilityMethod

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for TipStabilityMethod

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for TipStabilityMethod

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl PartialEq for TipStabilityMethod

fn eq(&self, other: &TipStabilityMethod) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for TipStabilityMethod

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.
