Sneezes, rain clouds, and ink jet printers: They all produce or contain liquid droplets so tiny it would take several billion of them to fill a liter bottle. Measuring the volume, motion and contents ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The drawbacks of existing measures for calibrating scanning probe microscopes (SPMs) based on various diffraction gratings and periodic ...

Calibrating and characterizing the performance of fluorescence microscopy systems is an important part of imaging operations, and as the microscopy platforms have become more advanced, so calibration ...

OPG offers national laboratory traceable line width and thin prism artifacts to calibrate the PSM for spatial scale and for converting the spatial scale to angle. Both artifacts calibrate the PSM ...

Nanotechnology researchers at UC Davis have shown that they can use a red blood cell to calibrate a sensitive instrument, an atomic force microscope. "It turns around the rules of nanotechnology, by ...

Introducing the SignatureSPM™: an automated AFM platform integrated with Raman spectroscopy for advanced nanotechnology ...

Why is calibration important? How calibration techniques have changed over time. A timeline showing the evolution of calibration from the beginning would have to start hundreds of years ago (Fig. 1).

A nanoscopic measuring device that uses atomic lattices to gauge tiny distances could enable microelectronics engineers to build better components, say US scientists. The “nanoruler” was developed by ...
