The Dimension Fastscan from Bruker is the fastest AFM on the market. John Thornton takes us for a tour of this instrument pointing out key features and runs a demonstration to illustrate how fast data can be collected. The speed of this instrument make it suited to rapid sampling across large samples and production environments where speed is critical.

The 8400 Series Hall Effect Measurement System (HEMS) is Lake Shore Cryotronics latest addition to their range of HEMS that are used to characterize the electronic properties of semiconductors. In particular they are used to determine carrier type, density and mobility as well as their hall co-efficient.

Bruker's CETR-Apex system is a nanomechanical testing system that features easily interchangeable heads allowing it to be able to used as a nano or micro indentation system as well as micro and nano scratch. Denis Koosau from Bruker shows us how easy it is to change a test head in this short video.

Roshan Shetty from Anasys Instruments shows us their new AFM+ platform. This new development has been designed as a modular entry level instrument that combines an atomic force microscope and thermal analysis capabilities. It has been designed so that it can be upgraded to their NanoIR spec at a later date.
