An atomic force microscopy(AFM) can look inside a nano world that can't be seen with a rare eye since it has a resolution of atomic level. It can see a tiny thing as small as 1/10,0000 of a hair thickness (100um). It is used for obtaining the 3D measurement of the metrology, topography, hardness, roughness, electricity, and magnetics of materials with nano scale resolution. We aim to distribute the AFM for the personal use purpose, called a personal AFM, with a much lower cost having the similar performances compared to the conventional AFMs in order to achieve technology revolution in nano industry.

 

Z Motorized Stage
Auto Approach to Samples
Z axis motorized stage makes the probe
tip approach to the sample automatically
and makes it ready to image the sample.

CCD
Easy Monitoring of the Tip Location
High resolution CCD camera is used to
monitoor the tip location on the sample.

Z Nano Positioning Scanner
Fast and Accurate Scanning
A PZT or a voice coil motor regulates the
contact, non-contact, and other application
modes for AFM imaging,repectively.

Probe Tip
Easy Installation of the Probe Tip
The use of piezo-resistive sensor mounted
to the probe tip removes the problem of the
conventional difficulty of the optical alignment.

XY Nano Positioning Scanner
A New Voice Coil Driven Scannner
A voice coil motor is used for positioning the
nano scanner to have easy and accurate
control as well as simple mechanical
configuration without the hysteresis effect.

XY Motorized Stage (option)
Fast Sample Moving and
Loading/Unloading

2 Axis motorized stages are used to move the
sample to a pasition of interest and pulls out
the XY nano positioning scanner quickly for
fast sample loading/unloading.
