- ScanAsyst-Fluid+probes have a sharpened tip ideal for high-resolution imaging in fluid. For an intentionally dull ScanAsyst tip for force measurements and extremely delicate samples in fluid, please use model ScanAsyst-Fluid.
ScanAsyst utilizes a Bruker proprietary method for curve collection and sophisticated algorithms to continuously monitor image quality, and to automatically make appropriate parameter adjustments. This enables:
- Automatic image optimization for faster, more consistent results, regardless of user skill level.
- Direct force control at ultra-low forces to protect delicate samples and tips from damage.
- Elimination of cantilever tuning, setpoint adjustment, and gain optimization to make even fluid imaging simple.
For use only on ScanAsyst-enabled Dimension Icon, MultiMode 8, and BioScope Catalyst AFMs. See the cantilever orientation diagram here. All ScanAsyst probes have <2 degrees of cantilever bend.
- ScanAsyst Fluid+ probes marry the sharpness of a Silicon tip with the low spring constant and high sensitivity of a Silicon Nitride cantilever, for an unprecedented level of high resolution and force control on samples in fluid.
