Atomic Force Microscopes (AFMs) offer students the opportunity to measure and visualize nanoscale surface features with magnifications in the 100,000,000 x range.

The AFM Educator’s Cookbook is a practical guide to Atomic Force Microscopes, and describes several interesting samples that students can image with an AFM. Each section of the Educator’s Cookbook offers example AFM images from the selected samples, as well as other important information including: where to purchase the samples; how to prepare the samples for AFM imaging; and how to process the resulting AFM images.
