Asylum Research Webinar: How to Choose the Best Probes

Description

selection is one of the most important considerations in atomic force microscopy. There is a wide breadth of scanning modes currently available, as well as a number of imaging conditions to study your sample.

With all of the probes available, how do you choose the right one?

There isn't a one-size-fits-all solution for choosing the right . How do you determine which one is right for your experiment? Even for a skilled user, choosing the right can be daunting. From hours of unproductive work, to sample contamination or damage, employing an inappropriate can prove disastrous.

Gain the benefit of experienced users to show you how.

This webinar aims to make you an expert at selecting the right to match your experiment, no what your skill level may be. Our team of applications scientists have scanned many types of materials and bio samples using different modes, conditions and probes. In this Webinar, I'll share our knowledge and experiences.

TOPICS:

• Probe fundamentals (spring constant, tip radius, quality factor, resonant )
• Overview of calibration
• Selecting probes for imaging in air or liquid
• Selecting probes for special modes and materials
• resolution imaging
• characterization
• Measurements that depend on contact resonance
• Specialized tips (diamond, carbon nanotubes, or aspect ratio tips)
• Real-world examples for materials and biology applications
