Results for tag: "Atomic Force Microscopy"

Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is a type of laboratory testing used to measure and analyze the surface of a sample at a nanometer scale. It is a powerful tool for imaging, measuring, and manipulating matter at the nanoscale. AFM is used in a variety of industries, including materials science, biotechnology, and nanotechnology. AFM is used to measure the physical properties of a sample, such as surface topography, adhesion, friction, and electrical properties. It can also be used to measure the mechanical properties of a sample, such as stiffness, elasticity, and viscosity. AFM is also used to study the structure and composition of a sample, such as proteins, DNA, and other biological molecules. AFM is a versatile tool for laboratory testing, and is used in a variety of applications, including materials characterization, nanofabrication, and nanomanipulation. Some companies in the AFM market include Bruker, Asylum Research, JPK Instruments, Nanosurf, and WITec. Show Less Read more
