Description

Tosca 400 AFM is a compact system with a large sample stage that enables users to detect surface topography down to atomic steps. This AFM not only provides basic surface imaging in both contact tapping mode and contact mode but also several advanced modes such as Magnetic force microscopy (MFM), Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy (KPFM), Conductive Atomic Force Microscopy (C-AFM), Current Control Conductive Atomic Force Mode (CCC-AFM) and force-distance measurement.

More details can be found here.

This AFM is a loaner system offered by Anton Paar GmbH whose generous offer is highly appreciated.
