Description

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) or scanning force microscopy (SFM) is a very high-resolution type of scanning probe microscopy, with demonstrated resolution on the order of fractions of a nanometer, more than 1000 times better than the optical diffraction limit.

  7. Carbon Nanotube Counter

    08 Aug 2018 | | Contributor(s):: Quinn Lennemann

    Carbon Nanotube Counter (CNT Counter) is a program that can count the density of Carbon Nanotubes in microscope scans. The program supports JPEG and TIFF images from both Scanning Electron Microscopes (SEMs) and Atomic Force Microscopes (AFMs). This program contains both an automatic mode and a...

  8. CDs and DVDs as Diffraction Gratings

    13 Jan 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Rama Balachandran, Karen Porter Davis, NNCI Nano

    The objective of this lab is to compare the diffraction behavior of light waves between a CD and DVD. CDs and DVDs contain regularly spaced micrometer sized features which can act like a diffraction grating. Using commercial electronic storage devices like CDs and DVDs as gratings rather than...
