Generating heat maps at the nanoscale often involves sophisticated imaging and data collection techniques. Some of the commonly used methods include:
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM): This technique can be used to create heat maps of surface properties like roughness and conductivity. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM): SEM can help generate high-resolution images that can be converted into heat maps to study surface morphology. Raman Spectroscopy: This technique can be used to create heat maps of chemical composition and molecular structure.
