Cypher ES Polymer Edition AFM

Routinely achieve higher resolution than other AFMs

• Unmatched mechanical stability—noise floor half  that of any other AFM
• Exceptionally low drift—higher resolution and straight lattice lines
• Low noise electronics—no artifacts from electronic noise sources

Fast scanning with results in seconds instead of minutes

• Scans 10-100× faster than typical AFMs
• Supports the fastest, smallest probes (3×9 µm spot size—optional)
• Fast scanning that goes beyond topography—also nanomechanics, CAFM, PFM

Every step of operation is simpler for remarkable productivity

• ModeMaster™ automatically configures software for selected mode
• SpotOn™ makes the fully motorized laser and detector alignment one-click
• GetReal™ automatically calibrates the cantilever spring constant and sensitivity
• GetStarted™ automatically sets optimal parameters for tapping mode imaging
• blueDrive™ makes tapping mode simpler, more stable, and more quantitative

Small footprint in the lab, huge potential to grow in capability

• Full suite of nanomechanical characterization modes available for measuring viscoelastic properties (storage/elastic modulus and loss modulus)
• Unmatched range of nanoelectrical and electromechanical characterization modes
• Upgradeable to the Cypher VRS for video-rate imaging
• Many standard operating modes and even more optional modes

Support that goes above and beyond your expectations

• Includes a standard one-year comprehensive warranty
• No-charge technical support and basic applications support for life
• Affordable support agreements that offer extended warranties and advanced training
• Easy upgrade path to the Cypher VRS

Enables gas and liquid perfusion through a sealed cell

• Fully sealed sample cells maintain a controlled environment and eliminate the risk of leaks
• Compatible with fast scanning and all environmental control accessories

Includes sample temperature control from ambient to 250°C

• Optional Heater-Cooler extends the sample temperature range to 0–120°C
• Low-drift design lets you keep imaging while ramping the temperature
• Quick and easy to setup and use, no external controllers, tubing, wires, etc.

Broadest compatibility with harsh chemicals

• Sample cells are constructed so that only fused silica and the probe clip (PEEK or stainless steel) are in contact with liquid
• Optional glovebox configuration allows use with oxygen or water sensitive materials
