Automatic AFM at IFIMAC- One system, multiple applications: Workshop and live demo
Tuesday 19th of March 2024
An Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) is a powerful tool used across various scientific disciplines for its ability to image and measure materials properties at the atomic scale. The recent development of a completely automatic AFM system can enhance significatively the research work of most scientific labs. In this event we will discuss some of its key applications in Materials Science and Technology including 2D materials, semiconductors, batteries, solar cells and polymers. We will also present a novel way of acquiring high resolution images of biological cells as well as the use of complementary techniques like ellipsometry and IR spectroscopy. Finally, we will perform a live demo of measuring topography, electrical and mechanical properties of a typical sample in an automatic way.
