Atomic Force Microscope (AFM)
www.ara-research.com Application:
In order to overcome the shortcomings of optical microscope and
Electron microscope, in the last decade of 20th century Atomic
Force Microscopes were developed and a new milestone was
created in Nano visualization and analyses of material surfaces.
Any sample type bio, metal, non-metal, polymers, etc. may be
scanned by AFM in various environments; air, liquid, vacuum and
non-air gas under different physical conditions; temperature,
pressure, electrical and magnetic field, etc.
So far, 5 countries in the world have succeeded in producing AFM
and one of them is Iran (Ara Research Co.).
Currently, three different types of this device have been produced
and has been applied to more than 85 universities and research
centers.
