Park NX20 AFM

Park Systems NX20 Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) designed for imaging in non-contact mode AFM with automated imaging optimization, this instrument is useful imaging very soft surfaces or samples with high aspect ratio features. Additionally, the NX20 can accept samples up to 8 inches in diameter while imaging areas up to 100 um2. The instrument is in an isolation box with an active vibration isolation system.

Imaging Modes: Non-Contact Mode, Tapping Mode, and Contact Mode
