Abstract

Atomic Force Microscopes (AFM) are able to capture images with a resolution in the nano metre scale. Due to this high resolution, the covered area per image is relatively small, which can be problematic when surveying a sample. A system able to stitch AFM images has been developed to solve this problem. The images exhibit tilt, offset and scanner bow, which are counteracted by subtracting a polynomial from each line. To be able to stitch the images properly template selection is done by analyzing texture and using a voting scheme. Grids of 3x3 images have been successfully leveled and stitched.
