application
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) was developed to overcome a fundamental drawback of scanning tunneling microscope (STM) - it can only image conductive or semiconducting surfaces. The advantage of AFM is that it can image almost any type of surface, including polymers, ceramics, composites, glass, and biological samples.
Unlike scanning tunneling microscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy does not require a conductive sample. Instead of using the quantum mechanical effects of tunneling, atomic forces are used to map the interaction of the tip with the sample.
Atomic Force Microscopy is simultaneously equipped with optical two-dimensional measurement and atomic force microscope three-dimensional measurement functions.
