Membrane-Based Scanning Force Microscopy [PDF]
We report the development of a scanning force microscope based on an ultra-sensitive silicon nitride membrane transducer. Our development is made possible by inverting the standard microscope geometry - in our instrument, the substrate is vibrating and the scanning tip is at rest.

Probing Italy: A Scanning Probe Microscopy Storyline
Starting from the late 1980’s, scanning probe microscopy has progressively diffused in Italy until today. In this paper, we provide a brief account of the main historical events and a current picture of the distribution of the active groups. A survey was

Scanning Drop Friction Force Microscopy
Wetting imperfections are omnipresent on surfaces. They cause contact angle hysteresis and determine the wetting dynamics. Still, existing techniques (e.g., contact angle goniometry) are not sufficient to localize inhomogeneities and image wetting variations. We overcome these limitations through scanning drop friction force microscopy (sDoFFI).

Evaluation of the probing profile of scanning force microscopy tips [PDF]
It is demonstrated that a high-temperature-treated (305) surface of a SrTiO3 crystal can be used to evaluate the probing profile of AFM tips routinely, to provide a means of selecting perfect tips and to evaluate possible image distortions.

ARMScope – the versatile platform for scanning probe microscopy systems
Scanning probe microscopy (SPM) since its invention in the 80’s became very popular in examination of many different sample parameters, both in university and industry. This was the effect of bringing this technology closer to the operator.

Dielectric Imaging of Fixed HeLa Cells by In-Liquid Scanning Dielectric Force Volume Microscopy
Mapping the dielectric properties of cells with nanoscale spatial resolution can be an important tool in nanomedicine and nanotoxicity analysis, which can complement structural and mechanical nanoscale measurements. Recently we have shown that dielectric
