Publication number: 20170254834Abstract: A modular AFM/SPM which provides faster measurements, in part through the use of smaller probes, of smaller forces and movements, free of noise artifacts, that the old generations of these devices have increasingly been unable to provide. The modular AFM/SPM includes a chassis, the foundation on which the modules of the instrument are supported; a view module providing the optics for viewing the sample and the probe; a head module providing the components for the optical lever arrangement and for steering and focusing those components; a scanner module providing the XYZ translation stage that actuates the sample in those dimensions and the engage mechanism; a isolation module that encloses the chassis and provides acoustic and/or thermal isolation for the instrument and an electronics module which, together with the separate controller, provide the electronics for acquiring and processing images and controlling the other functions of the instrument.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2017Publication date: September 7, 2017Inventors: Roger Proksch, Mario Viani, Jason Cleveland, Maarten Rutgers, Matthew Klonowski, Deron Walters, James Hodgson, Jonathan Hensel, Paul Costales, Anil Gannepalli
