Scanning Probe Microscope


Scanning probe microscope model Dimension Edge Bruker company.

The instrument is designed to determine the surface structure with nanometer lateral resolution and subnanometric resolution in a direction perpendicular to the surface. In addition to surface topography, local physicochemical properties of the surface can be measured using this device and performing nanolithographic operations and manipulations.

The instrument is designed to characterize materials at the atomic level.
