What Nanosurf customers are saying
Dr. Nitya Nand Gosvami
We have been using the FlexAFM system for the last couple of years. The ease of use and its robustness helped us publish a number of articles in high impact journals. I'm very pleased with the performance of your AFM system and would highly recommend your systems for other cus...
Dr. Thilo Glatzel
As a long-time Nanosurf customer, I highly value Nanosurf’s exceptionally fast and competent expert-level support. They were of great help in ironing out technical issues with our initial glovebox implementation and responded quickly and positively to all of my requests.
Prof. Tahar Touam
I purchased my first Nanosurf Flex-Axiom AFM system when I was at Annaba University (Algeria) in 2015 and was very satisfied with its capabilities. After taking a new position at the Research Unit in Optics and Photonics of the Centre for Development of Advanced Technologies ( ...
Dr. Joshua McGraw
In my lab at ESPCI, we study the interfacial dynamics of soft materials. Usually, a polymeric material makes up either the surrounding fluid or a surface layer and a colloid can be used as a tracer or model object interacting with the surface. As such, AFM in general, and coll...
Dr. Philipp Merkelbach
We contacted Nanosurf with a problem and they showed us the solution: we needed to measure samples on an existing inverted optical microscope as well as by AFM. Nanosurf solved the issue by designing a shuttle stage with a repositioning accuracy of better than...

AFM Theory: Learn how AFM works and all about AFM modes
Due to its flexibility, the atomic force microscope has become a common tool for material characterization alongside optical and electron microscopy, achieving resolutions down to the nanometer scale and beyond. The AFM can operate in environments from ultra-high vacuum to fluids, and therefore cuts across all disciplines from physics and chemistry to biology and materials science. This article describes the operating principle and most common measurement modes of atomic force microscopy, and some of the many properties that can be measured with AFM on the nanoscale.
