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

Within a decade, this unconventional microscope has evolved into a multifunctional ... Decreasing the size of cantilevers should improve the force resolution, thereby permitting smaller forces ...

There is another way to investigate the domain of the very small: an atomic force microscope. Unlike their electron spewing brothers, they don’t require high voltages or hard vacuums.

Yves Dufrêne and colleagues at the Université Catholique de Louvain now report the use of a kind of AFM called chemical force microscopy (CFM) to map the hydrophobicity of live microbes (Dague ...

[Andres] is working with an Atomic Force Microscope, a device that drags a small needle across a surface to produce an image with incredible resolution. The AFM can produce native .STL files ...

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 utilizes fine probes for providing high resolution and three-dimensional view of an object at nanometer levels. Atomic force microscopy is used for determining the ...

Without the need for a current, such an "atomic force microscope" (AFM) could reveal the structure of nonconductive materials such as proteins, organelles, and whole cells. Immediately thereafter, the ...

Researchers in our Atomic force microscopy (AFM) facility specialise in imaging and force measurement on biological systems, from the sub-molecular level through to cells and tissue. Off We currently ...

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 ...

One of the most important acronyms in nanotechnology is AFM – Atomic Force Microscopy. This instrument has become the most widely used tool for imaging, measuring and manipulating matter at the ...

The Agilent 5500 AFM/SPM microscope offers numerous unique features ... facilitates advanced applications solutions. It offers atomic resolution and is ideal for electrochemistry, polymers ...
