Atomic Force Microscope (AFM)



 

Brand name: Brunker Crest

Model name: Dimension Edge with Scanasyst

Description:

The Atomic force microscope allows us to investigate the structure and morphology of the surface. This is a powerful technique which generates topographic images of the structure with atomic resolution.

AFM used as an surface imaging tool:

  • Scan the surface materials to produce topographical images
  • Used to determine roughness, grain size, and features on the nanoscale
  • Can resolve individual holes, defects and atomic clusters

AFM has been used for measurements on a wide variety of sample types such as thin and thick film coatings, ceramics, composites, glasses, synthetic and biological membrane, metals, polymers and semiconductors.

Scan available: 0-40 microns , 0-100 microns

Sample size: minimum 1 cm X 1 cm

Scan Mode :

  • Scanasyst/Tapping/Contact
  • Conductive AFM (1 DC bias)
  • Magnetic Force Microscopy
  • Piezoresponse Force Microscopy
  • Force Spectroscopy

Location: Room 049 & 050, Block D, Faculty of Science 2, Universiti Putra Malaysia
