AFM-NSS

NOVEL COMPOSITIONAL RINGING MODE

Ringing Mode™ is a new AFM imaging mode that provides previously inaccessible information regarding the composition of samples

Provides unique data for each sample, which is impossible to obtain with other techniques
User-friendly technology with minimal learning curve
8 additional RM channels for imaging the sample surface; all 8 channels are obtained simultaneously
Up to 14 different data channels can be acquired simultaneously when combined with the traditional sub-resonance tapping
Measurements are highly consistent and repeatable
Images are acquired at high imaging rates
Measurements can be taken in the air or submerged in liquid
Higher signal-to-noise ratio is obtained due to multiple averaging of recorded signal
Less distortion due to possible interference due to independent identification of zero force
Can be installed on a range of AFM systems
Seamless integration with Bruker’s AFMs

FAST AND HIGH-RESOLUTION NANOINDENTER

Dynamic mechanical spectroscopy (DMS) of soft materials is quantitative and results are repeatable
Storage, loss moduli, and loss tangent can simultaneously be recorded for 10 different frequencies (currently up to 300Hz)
Static (Young’s) moduli can be measured simultaneously with dynamic mechanical properties
Up to 280x faster compared to the current state-of-the-art nanoindenter, FT-nanoDMA can be treated as an imaging mode
150x increase in lateral resolution compared to the current state-of-the-art nanoindenters
Measurements can be taken in the air or submerged in liquid
Samples may include biological cells (both fixed and live directly in physiological media), tissues, and even ultrasoft polymers and polymer brushes
Ability to record frequency gradients of dynamic moduli; no other technology allows for such measurements on a nanoscale
