Compact AFM, Atomic Force Microscope

Article No: 09700-99

Compact and easy-to-use atomic force microscope for imaging a wide range of micro- and nanostructures. Designed for teaching, laboratory courses, and research preparation in physics, chemistry, life sciences, and engineering.

Key Features
  • Compact all-in-one device, easy to operate and transport
  • Complete solution including instrument, samples, probes, tools, and experiment descriptions
  • Automatic probe approach to prevent damage to probe and sample
  • Samples are easy to insert and replace
  • No laser alignment required
  • Research-grade system at about one third of the cost of a research instrument
