Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a way to investigate the surface features of some materials. It works by “feeling” or “touching” the surface with an extremely small probe. This provides a ...

In this interview, AZoNano talks to Eduard Weichselbaumer, Senior Executive at PrimeNano, about the work they do in the Atomic Force Microscopy Field and the advances the company is making. Please ...

In this interview, Professor Emeritus Mervyn Miles at the University of Bristol speaks about the history and technology behind Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM). Can ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy have emerged as complementary techniques that enable the precise characterisation of materials at the nanoscale. AFM provides ...

A standard single frequency AFM is comprised of a boron-doped silicon (Si) or silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4) cantilever with a length of a few micrometers and a single crystal diamond tip at the bottom of ...

Atomic force microscopy is a powerful technique that has been widely used in materials research, nano-imaging, and bioimaging. It is a topographical metrology approach that is commonly utilized in ...

Factor-pooling by ribosomes caught on video using state-of-art high-speed atomic force microscopy technology. Ribosomes are the complexes of ribonucleoproteins at the heart of protein synthesis in ...

Invented 30 years ago, the atomic force microscope has been a major driver of nanotechnology, ranging from atomic-scale imaging to its latest applications in manipulating individual molecules, ...

For anyone that’s fiddled around with a magnifying glass, it’s pretty easy to understand how optical microscopes work. And as microscopes are just an elaboration on a simple hand lens, so too are ...
