The Next Generation AFM – Nanosurf Mobile S
Liestal, Switzerland - Nanosurf is proud to introduce
the new all-in-one Mobile S, a versatile, portable, state
of the art surface imaging device for the Nanometer Generation.
This Swiss precision microscope makes three-dimensional
measurements with nanometer resolution simple and affordable,
visualising structures too small for optical microscopes
on areas up to 110 x 110 µm. Its capabilities predestine
it for roughness measurements, morphological inspection,
tribology, failure and defect analysis on high-tech surfaces,
quantitative evaluation of nanostructured surfaces or
optical diffraction structures, and similar tasks.
The Nanosurf Mobile S was designed in keeping with the
Nanosurf philosophy of making specialised measurements
accessible to untrained laypersons. The swivel-snapping
SensorGuard protects the measuring probe and scan head
from damage, and the built-in DropStop makes changing
the probe even easier. Measuring becomes an easy three-step
process: precisely position the probe on the sample surface
using the integrated video camera, image the surface features
of interest, and generate a presentable measurement report
with a Nanosurf Report template. And to top it off, the
Mobile S software comes with a choice of three operating
modes, from easy, for the cautious beginner, to advanced,
for the seasoned pro.
Two different scan heads are available, depending on
user preference. The high resolution scan head is able
to measure atomic steps and roughness on an angstrom scale,
whereas the large scan head can handle corrugations of
over a dozen µm and significant sample curvature.
Thanks to their palette of scan modes either scan head
can measure a wide variety of samples – from hard
ceramics to fragile butterfly wings – without special
sample preparation, and their compact, standalone design
allows measurement of oversized or immobile samples. Of
course, it is possible to take spectroscopy in any mode,
even in combination with the freely configurable user
input or sync pulse output signals.
