A compact, fast, and low-noise current-to-voltage amplifier is built for scanning tunneling microscopy. The amplifier consists of two amplification stages. The first stage performs low-noise transimpedance amplification by using a high performance FET operational amplifier together with a high-ohm feedback resistor of 1 GΩ and a parallel trimming capacitor. The ac boosting amplifier in the second stage recovers the higher frequency above the 3 dB cutoff of the first stage to extend the maximum bandwidth up to 100 kHz. This two-stage current-to-voltage amplifier shows a low current noise below sub-pA rms when tuned to have the bandwidth of around 1 kHz. It also guarantees stable frequency response in the presence of 1000 pF input capacitance.
