Features of the HR-SPM

The new HR-SPM scanning probe microscope uses
frequency detection. High Resolution
This instrument is not only capable of ultra-high Uses the FM method

first time enables observations of hydration/solvation Achieves the performance level of a vacuum-type SPM, even in air and liquids.
layers at solid-liquid interfaces.
Enables measurement of the local structure at the solid-liquid interface.
HR-SPM: High Resolution Scanning Probe Microscope
Improved Usability

HT scanner extends observation area and shortens observation times.
Dual monitors and signal indication function provide significant improvement in flexibility.

Existing SPMs (Scanning Probe Microscopes) and AFMs ( Atomic Force Microscopes) generally use AM (Amplitude Modulation).
In principle however, the FM (Frequency Modulation) measurementmethod enables higher imaging resolution.
