Point Scan

Screenshot of the second iRHEED screen, the point scan module, showing the colored oscillating lines indicating the measured intensity and the buttons to access the various functions of this module

The point scan module displays and records the averaged sensor intensities as a function of time. Buttons allow you to display or hide any of the sensors for one-to-one comparisons. You may zoom in and out of the display using the mouse wheel or two finger touch gestures. All data are stored with high resolution time stamps that accompany the data through all processing steps, allowing you to exactly locate any event on the time axis even when reviewing the data months later. Integer data processing preserves the full accuracy of the raw data through all processing steps.
