What is Scanning Microwave Microscopy? Scanning microwave microscopy (SMM) is a powerful imaging technique that combines the principles of atomic force microscopy (AFM) and microwave technology to ...

The Scanning Microwave Microscope (SMM) merges the nanoscale imaging capabilities of an atomic force microscope (AFM) with the high-frequency broadband (from MHz to GHz) impedance measurement accuracy ...

FA engineers are expected to produce accurate results. Thus, there is no room for error when it comes to the data provided by instruments. Due to its data precision ...

In recent decades, there has been an increased desire to miniaturize electronics, which, in turn, has enhanced the demand for nano-electrical characterization methods. It is crucial that an ...

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

In the sMIM approach, a microwave signal reflected from the interface between the tip and the sample retains information of the electrodynamic characteristics of the sample surface beneath the tip ...

There has been so much talk about lithography effects in metal on advanced processes that any time we hear terms such as OPC or sub-wavelength, we see images of pinched-off metal-1 traces. But the ...

June 27, 2012. Agilent Technologies Inc. has announced the availability of scanning microwave microscopy (SMM) capabilities for atomic force microscope, the 5500 AFM. scanning, microwave, microscopy, ...

Unlike the light microscopes that use visible light to illuminate the sample, LSCM instead utilizes a focused scanning laser to illuminate a subsurface of a three-dimensional (3D) specimen. The visual ...
