Asylum Research Installs First Cypher AFM in China

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Asylum Research recently installed the first of its Cypher atomic force microscope systems in China. The system was installed in the lab of Xingsen Gao at South China Normal University’s Institute for Advanced Materials in Guangzhou. Gao’s group will use the instrument to investigate advanced piezoelectric, ferroelectric and multiferroic materials.

Ltd., with the newly installed Cypher atomic force microscope. (Image: Asylum Research)

“We chose Cypher because of its true atomic resolution and sophisticated PFM (piezoresponse force microscopy) imaging techniques,” Gao said. “We are planning to use it as a stable and powerful platform for probing various nanoscale properties on multifunctional materials with integration of other electrical characterization methods.”

According to the company, the Cypher AFM has the highest resolution of all such microscopes, providing low-drift closed-loop atomic resolution and support for all major scanning modes.
