Definition: Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM) is a branch of microscopy that forms images of surfaces using a physical probe that scans the specimen. SPM is instrumental in the analysis and ...

A scanning probe microscope comes in a wide variety of flavors, they all produce a set of data points containing the measurements at each location. Usually these data points form a regular 2D grid ...

Scanning Tunneling Microscopy is a subset of Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM), a group of techniques that image and manipulate surfaces at the nanometer to atomic scales. SPM techniques share the ...

Atomic force microscopy is a subset of scanning probe microscopy. The Veeco Dimension 3000 operates in both tapping and contact modes, with capabilities of topographic and phase imaging, lateral force ...

Atomic force microscopy is a subset of scanning probe microscopy. The Veeco Nanoscope II operates in contact mode and is primarily used for high-resolution imaging and surface force measurements in ...
