In this dissertation work a technique that utilizes an atomic force microscope (AFM) in a non-contact configuration for direct patterning of nanoscale sized gold dots and wires and its characterizations is presented. For the fabrication of gold nanodots an oscillating gold-coated AFM probe is kept in close proximity to a sample surface and the application of a voltage pulse of either polarity leads to the deposition of the dot. Highly reproducible deposition is obtained by the precise control of the tip-sample separation. For controlling this separation, a feedback control enabled by the application of an external electrostatic servo for...
