Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a type of scanning probe microscopy that is used to see and measure surface topography, conduct force measurements or manipulate a sample’s surface. It can have nearly ...
Left: This is a simulated atomic force microscopy image. In this method, the tip of the microscope scans the surface of the sample (here: a single cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPC) molecule), measuring the ...
Introduction to SNOM: The Scanning Near-field Optical Microscope (SNOM) stands as a pivotal analytical tool in nanotechnology, enabling the visualization of nanostructures with resolution beyond the ...
What is Scanning Ion Conductance Microscopy? Scanning Ion Conductance Microscopy (SICM) is a non-contact scanning probe microscopy technique that enables high-resolution imaging of living cells and ...
A scanning probe microscope comes in a wide variety of flavors, they all produce a set of data points containing the measurements at each location. Usually these data points form a regular 2D grid, ...
A Czech and Spanish-led research team has demonstrated the ability to distinguish subtle differences between magnetic ground states using a new form of scanning probe microscopy. In the last few years ...
The biggest challenge with SPM is that the SPM data quality is inherently linked to the tip quality. As we all know, since its inception, SPM has become one of the go-to methods for nanoscale ...
A technical paper titled “High-speed mapping of surface charge dynamics using sparse scanning Kelvin probe force microscopy” was published by researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, (ORNL), ...
The Asylum Research MFP-3D Origin+ Atomic Force Microscope offers high-resolution imaging, supports large samples, and comes with a full range of imaging modes and accessories. Cantilevers are located ...
