Near-Field Scanning Optical Microscope: MCL-NSOM
The MCL-NSOM is a near field scanning optical microscope using a resonant probe. The MCL-NSOM is built on a microscope platform with access to optical pathways making it ideal to use with optical microscopy techniques. The MCL-NSOM includes 6 axes of motorized positioning and 3 axes of closed loop nanopositioning for exceptional position resolution. The NSOM can be operated in 5 standard NSOM modes and can also be used solely as a resonant probe AFM.
Building on the resonant probe SPM, the MCL-NSOM incorporates common elements such as the MadPLL® phase lock loop controller. The microscope features a 635 nm laser excitation source, fiber launch, an oil immersion objective lens, a CMOS alignment camera, and an avalanche photodiode detector. It supports illumination, collection, illumination and collection, reflection, and reflection collection modes, while operating in aperture mode with shear force feedback.
