Photo-induced force microscopy began as a concept in the mind of Kumar Wickramasinghe when he was employed by IBM in the ...

Today we're looking at Atomic Force Microscopy! I built a "macro-AFM" to demonstrate the principles of an atomic force ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a powerful technique that enables surface ultrastructure visualization at molecular resolution. 1 Besides three-dimensional (3D) surface characterization, this ...

A research team led by Prof. Tian-Bao Ma from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Tsinghua University has proposed a ...

Digital Instrument's BioScope Anyone who has ever taken the time to critically examine a walnut knows that a two-dimensional photograph fails in many respects to truly convey the unique features--the ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has become an indispensable technique for examining various samples with nanoscale resolution under physiological conditions.In addition to topographic measurements ...

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 ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a method of topographical measurement, wherein a fine probe is raster scanned over a material, and the minute variation in probe height is interpreted by laser ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was originally invented for visualizing surfaces with nanoscale resolution. Its basic working principle is to move an ultrathin tip over a sample’s surface.

Conductive atomic force microscopy (C-AFM) is a powerful nanoscale characterization technique that combines the high-resolution imaging capabilities of atomic force microscopy (AFM) with the ability ...
