Scanning probe microscopy (SPM) encompasses a diverse range of techniques that enable the interrogation of surfaces with atomic-scale precision. These methods, including atomic force microscopy (AFM), ...

A scanning probe microscope comes in a wide variety of flavors, they all produce a set of data points containing the measurements at each location. Usually these data points form a regular 2D grid, ...

A technical paper titled “High-speed mapping of surface charge dynamics using sparse scanning Kelvin probe force microscopy” was published by researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, (ORNL), ...

Since the first transmission electron microscope was sold in 1935, microscopes that use electrons--rather than light waves--to image objects have brought into focus levels of detail that were ...

An international research team has succeeded in controlling the chirality of individual molecules through structural isomerization. The team also succeeded in synthesizing highly reactive diradicals ...

The biggest challenge with SPM is that the SPM data quality is inherently linked to the tip quality. As we all know, since its inception, SPM has become one of the go-to methods for nanoscale ...

The Asylum Research MFP-3D Origin+ Atomic Force Microscope offers high-resolution imaging, supports large samples, and comes with a full range of imaging modes and accessories. Cantilevers are located ...

Cells naturally operate on the nanoscale level, with molecules combining together to form complex molecular machines, which can work together to enable normal cell function or go wrong as in the case ...

Introduction to SNOM: The Scanning Near-field Optical Microscope (SNOM) stands as a pivotal analytical tool in nanotechnology, enabling the visualization of nanostructures with resolution beyond the ...
