CoreAFM: The Essence of Atomic Force Microscopy

Intelligently combining the core components of AFM to achieve maximum versatility and user-friendliness resulted in the CoreAFM. Because of this fundamental design, the CoreAFM is streamlined to perform AFM at its best.

Key features

• Compact by design, with a complete and streamlined feature set

• The fusion of a modern flexure-guided scanner, XYZ sample stage, camera, active vibration isolation table, and air-flow protection in a single all-in-one unit results in a complete AFM system with an unparalleled compact footprint. All the essential functions of modern AFM are integral components of the CoreAFM system; thus, only connecting the controller, power and USB is all that is needed for a fully operational CoreAFM.

• A real performer that is both powerful and versatile

• State of the art electronics with 24-bit ADC and DAC results in high-resolution XYZ driving of the 100×100×12 μm scanner and allows for low-noise force detection limited only by the cantilever. Thirty two standard and optional modes with fully compatible add-ons make the CoreAFM the tool of choice for applications ranging from materials research to life science and electrochemistry. Starting from the basic CoreAFM system its functionality can be seamlessly extended.

• Simplicity and functionality that offer top value for money

• The minimalist and integrated design approach makes every component essential to its function. Less is more: for the CoreAFM this means more value for your money.
