Today we're looking at Atomic Force Microscopy! I built a "macro-AFM" to demonstrate the principles of an atomic force microscope, then we look at a real AFM (an nGauge AFM from ICSPI) and do a few ...

As of early 2026, the global AFM market has expanded to approximately USD 542 million, up from USD 514 million in 2024, reflecting increased demand from semiconductor fabrication, nanotechnology ...

How some of the world’s most precise clocks missed a very small beat. By Mike Ives and Adeel Hassan Time appeared to skip a beat last week when some of the world’s most accurate clocks were affected ...

In this infographic, we dive into how atomic force microscopy (AFM) works, the technical features one must consider and how it can be implemented for biomechanical investigation. AFM provides ...

First invented in 1985 by IBM in Zurich, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is a scanning probe technique for imaging. It involves a nanoscopic tip attached to a microscopic, flexible cantilever, which is ...

Companies that can leverage advanced quantum technology to help drone swarms overcome electronic jamming may have a future opportunity in partnership with the Air Force. Specifically, the service is ...

Scientists at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory have reimagined the capabilities of atomic force microscopy, or AFM, transforming it from a tool for imaging nanoscale features ...
