Park Systems Atomic Force Microscopy Taking The Lead Again With Principle Of Precision


Posted September 2, 2021 by parksystems7

Afm Principle Is Truly A Sophisticated Technological Breakthrough
 
The way the AFM principle works is by using a cantilever that features a sharp tip to allow it to scan the surface of samples on a nanoscale. The tip approaches the surface at close range and then the force between the surface and tip activates the cantilever to bounce either closer or further away from the surface. As the cantilever moves closer to the surface, it increases the force between the tip and the surface and causes the cantilever to bounce from the surface. The principle is based on the cantilever and tip construction, which is commonly referred to as the probe.

The cantilever design is in comparison to the tip. While this design is very precise and requires absolute precision, it is also durable. The scanner is designed with crystals which creates a voltage with the application of pressure. The configuration in the scanner software permits the control movement of this action to a fraction of a nanometre. Such precise manipulation of the sample could not be possible with ordinary mechanical methods.

The tip is the most crucial part of the AFM. Any advances are always made to create a better tip. The silicon tip and needs to be sharp and thin to get into all the areas of the sample and need to be strong enough to survive all the forces.

AFM relies on measuring mechanical contact force and magnetic force while it also allows for the measuring of different quantities by using specialized probes.
