Key Features and Benefits of the TT-2 AFM
Low Noise Floor | With a noise floor <80 picometers, the TT-2 AFM is capable of measuring samples with features from nano-meters to microns. |
Direct Drive Tip Approach | A linear motion stage moves the probe relative to the sample. The probe sample angle does not change, and samples of many thicknesses are readily scanned. |
Research Grade Video Optical Microscope | With a mechanical 7:1 zoom and a resolution of 2 µm the video optical microscope facilitates locating features, tip approach, and laser alignment. |
Multiple Scanners | Linearized piezoelectric scanners with several ranges are available to optimize scanning conditions. |
LabView Software | The TT-2 uses industry standard lab view software. For customization, the systems VI's are readily available. |
Modular Design | Once you buy the TT-2 AFM you can add options and modes such as focus assist, image logger, lithography and liquid scanning when you are ready. |
Simple Probe Exchange | With the removable probe holder, exchanging probes is simple, and takes less than a minute. |
Ligh Lever Large Adjustment Range | Because the TT-2 has a large adjustment range on the laser and photodetector, probes from all major manufacturers can be used. |
