Combined NSOM/AFM systems operational in the field, apply with scientific applications - from biological to semiconductor, and from chemical through to telecommunications.
Advanced systems for low temperature NSOM/AFM; environmental chambers; chemical and gas delivery systems; and nano-lithography systems are all part of combined near-field optical microscopes.
Powerful imaging combinations such as combined AFM/NSOM/SEM and combined AFM/NSOM/micro-Raman systems, allow scientists unique experimental set-ups for ground breaking applications.
NSOM (SNOM) systems are for transmission, collection and true reflection. Systems both AFM and NSOM provide for a completely free optical axis from both above and below, thus allowing for transparent SPM integration with standard optical microscopes both upright, inverted and unique dual (or 4pi) microscopes.
