Atomic Force Microscope Manufacturer

AFMWorkshop STEM Program

Why just talk about it when you can actually do it? AFMWorkshop’s B-2 AFM and TT2-AFM provide affordable and easy entries into the world of probing and imaging surfaces, forces, and objects that are unsuitable for standard optical microscopes. Atomic force microscopy also provides a strong interdisciplinary foundation for more complex characterization techniques such as scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

The atomic force microscope is credited with the birth of nanotechnology - and its inventors won the 1986 Nobel Prize just a few short years after their technology was realized!

AFMWorkshop’s tools provide hands-on learning opportunities that are not possible with more expensive AFMs.

Students learn so much more by spending time with a tool and a method – why rely on scheduling trips to, or time online with, a shared lab facility? Large shared facilities can have some amazing equipment, however undergraduate students and senior high school students are not often permitted to use this equipment.

AFMWorkshop has intentionally designed the educational AFMs to be affordable enough so that many institutions can now have their own AFM in their own lab.

Several educational customers of AFMWorkshop have purchased multiple units of our AFMs and had hundreds of students work with the same robust and affordable instruments for over 10 years! They’ve designed their labs to enable multiple groups of students to touch, analyze and learn.

HANDS-ON LEARNING

AFMWorkshop has multiple educational resources to help you add AFM education in your High School or University. We also will work with teachers and professors to help you feel comfortable presenting the technology.
