Nanoelectronics and Nanofabrication
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is a high-resolution imaging technique that allows researchers to visualize and manipulate surfaces at the atomic level using a cantilever with a sharp tip. AFM provides topographical data and can measure various forces between the tip and the sample, making it essential in fields like nanotechnology and materials science. This method is particularly valuable for understanding self-assembly processes and characterizing nanostructures.
congrats on reading the definition of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). now let's actually learn it.
