infocus #63 September 2021 Automated Nanoscale Quality Control For Reliable, Artifact-free Atomic Force Microscopy
DOI: 10.22443/rms.inf.1.208
Full inspection of every AFM tip at the nanoscale is a critical, yet impossible task to do manually. NuNano has customised a TESCAN Field-emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM) to automate this process. This article discusses the importance of high-quality control of AFM probes and reviews the different types of tips and
their applications.
