Atomic Force Microscope
How it works and what it can do. A close look at it's probe, using an electron microscope.
Engineering small worlds: micro and nano technologies - for iPod/iPhone
How do you see the invisible? Today, mechanical, electrical, chemical and biological engineering of âsmall worldsâ is revolutionising our lives. Atomic Force Microscopes are an important tool when creating engineering solutions on the micro and nano scale. The 4 video tracks on this album examine the AFM's engineering and operation, explain how it can be adapted for a wide range of applications and describe its use in the life sciences and semiconductor industries. This material forms part of T356 Engineering Small Worlds â Micro and Nano Technologies.
