Measurement services for AFM/SPM 

All major SPM modes to image including:

tapping mode

contact mode

lateral force mode

phase imaging

bimodal/multifrequency methods

static force spectroscopy

dynamic force spectroscopy

We can measure all the common surface properties with AFM including:

topography

roughness

material contrast

adhesion

stiffness

Statistical analysis material properties, contact mechanics model fitting, image processing as well as data interpretation are also included.

Including quasistatic and dynamic measurements of:

Youngs modulus

Hardness

Scratch testing

Wear testing

Viscoelastic parameters:  Storage modulus (E'), Loss modulus (E"), Loss tangent

In-house and third party measurement services of your sample by the experts!

What is the different information SPM can provide for my application?

What is the best mode of operation for my experiments?

How can I optimize my operating parameters?

How can SPM enhance/complement the information I am getting from other surface characterization techniques?

How can I identify artifacts in my imaging and my interpretation?

Are these properties that I am measuring accurate?
