Overview

We have two STM labs. The first one is on the basement floor of Centre for Nanoscience and Quantum Information (LG11). It features an acoustic room, a keel slab and a Faraday cage. The keel slab prevent the mechanical vibrations from the outside environment from affecting the experiments. The Faraday cage provides the protection against the electrical noise. The acoustic chamber provides

The second lab is on the ground floor of HH Wills lab (LG27). The STM sits on an isolated concrete slab. The anechoic chamber houses cryogenic ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscopes with in situ sample and tip preparation tools.
