PeakForce Tapping - AFMの理想形

Bruker’s exclusive PeakForce Tapping® is the most significant scientific breakthrough in atomic force microscope (AFM) technology since the introduction of TappingMode™. It provides unprecedented high-resolution imaging, extends AFM measurements into a range of samples not previously accessed, and uniquely enables simultaneous nanoscale property mapping.

PeakForce Tapping enables the researcher to precisely control probe-to-sample interaction, providing the lowest available imaging forces. This superior force control results in the most consistent, highest resolution AFM imaging for the widest range of sample types, from the softest biological samples to very hard materials. PeakForce Tapping routinely resolves subunits in individual molecules, the kind of resolution that used to be thought of as only possible with scanning tunneling microscopy (STM).
