Patent ID: 10871505

Abstract:
A data processing device for a scanning probe microscope, the data processing device processing biaxial data indicating a change in a second physical quantity with respect to a change in a first physical quantity, the biaxial data being acquired for each of a plurality of measurement points on a sample surface by scanning the sample surface with a probe using a scanning probe microscope, the data processing device includes: a feature amount calculator 41 that acquires one or a plurality of types of feature amounts from the biaxial data at each measurement point; a feature amount selector 42 that causes a user to select one of the one or the plurality of types of feature amounts; a two-dimensional mapping image display unit 43 that displays the feature amount on a screen as a two-dimensional mapping image with each measurement point as one pixel based on selection of the feature amount by the user; and a biaxial data display unit 44 that, when the user selects one of the pixels in the two-dimensional mapping image, displays on the screen the selected pixel and the biaxial data of the measurement point corresponding to one or a plurality of pixels adjacent to the selected pixel.
