AFM-IR

Two tunable IR laser sources
  • QCL laser: 780 to 1810 cm-1

  • OPO laser: 2700 to 4300 cm-1

AFM-IR modalities include (all have phase lock-loop control):
  • Contact AFM-IR

  • Resonance Contact AFM-IR

  • Tapping AFM-IR

  • Surface Sensitive AFM-IR (AFM feedback is contact mode)

  • No phase lock-loop control for SS AFM-IR

  • Stage supports samples up to 150 mm diameter
    Scan types include:

  • IR spectral scan mode (single point, line and/or array scans with site specific precision using MiroView)

  • AFM-IR maps (acquire AFM scan at specific IR absorption band)
