GlossaryScanning Probe Microscopy

technique for imaging surfaces at atomic or molecular scale

Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM) is a technique used to create detailed images of surfaces at the atomic or molecular level. It involves scanning a sharp probe very close to the surface of a sample and measuring interactions between the probe and the surface to generate high-resolution images. This method is crucial in fields like materials science and nanotechnology for analyzing surface properties and structures.
