Breakthrough instruments and products: DriveAFM for high-performance atomic force microscopy

Abstract

Atomic force microscopy is a powerful technique for measurement and mapping of nanoscale topography and electrical and mechanical sample properties. The Nanosurf DriveAFM is a new generation instrument that combines ease of use and high performance through full motorization, CleanDrive photothermal excitation, and a mechanical and electrical design that allows for both high-resolution and large-range imaging.
