Abstract:
Bruker today announced the release of the Dimension FastScan Pro™ Automated AFM Nano-Metrology System for high-volume measurement environments. FastScan Pro renders performance previously achievable only by AFM experts in research laboratories while delivering the repeatability and reproducibility expected in a production environment. The system integrates Bruker’s proven lowest noise and fast scanning technology to provide the highest throughput without reducing data quality. FastScan Pro also utilizes a highly comprehensive software automation package that features intuitive recipe-writing capabilities to reduce complex measurement routines to simple, push-button operations. This unique industrial AFM solution is completed with Bruker FastScan probes specifically designed to deliver longer tip life and sustained high-resolution data acquisition across hundreds of samples in high-volume environments. With its open access platform, large- or multiple-sample holders, and numerous ease-of-use features, FastScan Pro opens up the power of high-performance, research-grade atomic force microscopy to meet production requirements.
