Atomic Force Microscope - educational type

Function and Applications

This teaching system allows students to handle and adjust the setup while performing experiments to image one of the includes samples. This system can achieve sufficient resolution to demonstrate the physical properties and technolgies used in AFMs.

• Build an Atomic Force Microscope
• Learn about the Fundamental Forces between Atoms at the probe tip and sample surface
• Learn about nanometer-precision motion control and hysteresis with piezo-driven actuators
• Understand the principles behind various scanning methods such as constant height and constant force mode
