From just one scan, we can get topography, adhesion, stiffness, elasticity, viscosity -- pretty much everything. |
I think this technology will eventually replace the current AFM. We've multiplied each of the old capabilities by at least 10, and it has lots of new applications. |
The potential is huge. AFM started as a topography tool and has exploded to many more uses since. I'm sure people will find all sorts of uses for FIRAT that I haven't imagined. |
