Atomic Force Microscope (Model No. NTEGRA Vita from NT-MDT).:
Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) or scanning probe microscope (SPM) is an advanced highresolution microscope consisting of cantilever with a sharp tip (probe) at its end that is used to scan the specimen surface. The main advantage of atomic force microscope is that the sample need not be conducting.
Applications:
- Surface morphology of physical and biological samples.
- Surface mapping of magnetic material.
- Current mapping.
- NanoLithography.
- Nanoindentation.
- STM.
