AFM is an advanced multi-parametric imaging technique. It delivers very high-resolution 3D images of聽the topography of the sample. It also enables the characterization of the nano-mechanical, nano-electrical, and nano-magnetic properties of the surface. Users will learn about the theory of AFM as well as practical applications, operational tips for… Read More

Microfluidic devices can enable 鈥渓abs on chips鈥� that consume less reagents and聽have faster analysis times than similar experiments performed in a traditional lab environment. Applications of microfluidic devices include portable sensors for point-of-care analysis, molecular and cell biology studies, and high-throughput, multiplexed assays. This short course will introduce… Read More

Electron microscopy is a critical component for the characterization of material and biological specimens at the nanoscale. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) both use electron beams to reveal structure, but in very different ways. Although these instruments have been made very accessible with the… Read More
