XE-15 Atomic Force Microscopy
Brand :Park
Model :XE-15
Keywords :XE15,Stepscan,AFM,SPM,large Sample

The Park XE15 includes many unique capabilities that make it ideal for shared labs that handle a diverse range of samples, researchers doing multi variant experiments, and failure analysis engineers working on wafers. Its reasonable price and robust feature set also make it one of the best value large-sample AFMs in the industry.



 

Park XE15 MultiSample™ scan system

1) Automated imaging of multiple samples in one pass

2) Speciallydesigned multi-sample chuck for the loading of up to 16

individual samples


  • 3) Fully motorized XY sample stage travels up to 150 mm x 150 mm
  • Using the motorized sample stage, MultiSample Scan™ enables
  • programmable multiple region imaging in step-and-scan automation.
    • Here’s how it works: 
      1. Register multiple scan positions defined by a user 
      2. Image from the first scan position 
      3. Lift a cantilever 
      4. Move the motorized stage to the next user defined coordinate 
      5. Approach 
      6. Repeat scan

    • 1)2D Flexure-Guided Scanner with 100um*100um scan range

      2)  Flexure-Guided high force Z Scanner

      3)  Motorized XY Sample Stage with Optional Encoders

      4)  High Resolution Digital CCD Camera with Digital Zoom

      5)  Vertically aligned motorized Z stage and Focus Stage 

      6)  Slide-to Connect SLD Head

      7)  Multisample Chuck
