AFM Modes

Bruker's Unrivalled Suite of AFM Modes Offers Advantages for Every Application

Bruker has been developing and optimizing AFM modes since our release of the first commercial system in the 1980s. Building upon the backbone of Contact Mode and Tapping Mode, Bruker developed dozens of modes to allow users to probe their samples’ electrical, magnetic, or materials properties. As AFM capabilities and research advancements continued to demand more versatility, we continued to push the envelope of available modes and techniques.

Bruker’s innovative PeakForce Tapping® technology has become a new core imaging paradigm that is being incorporated into an ever-growing range of modes to provide additional topographic, electrical, and mechanical properties data. Other advances include the DataCube Modes, which provide hyperspectral “big data” with electrical ramps and force distance curves at every pixel, and AFM-nDMA captures viscoelastic properties and their frequency dependence.

In addition to continually advancing AFM capabilities with new modes, Bruker has also released ScanAsyst® Plus self-optimizing imaging software to make it easier to select and use various modes. Only Bruker AFMs give researchers access to today's full suite of 50+ modes.
