The Shimadzu SPM-9700HT microscope, for scanning the surface of samples using an extremely sharp probe, is a powerful modern tool for studying the shape and local properties of the surface of a solid body at high magnification. A comprehensive approach to analysis using this device is realized in the ability to operate in different modes. The SPM-9700HT takes high-performance observations to a new level.

Scanning probe microscope

Features
- High-performance scanner reduces observation time. With the newly deployed HT scanner, which provides high-speed response and software optimization, as well as the design of the control system, image data acquisition is now available at speeds 5 times or more faster than usual. The HT scanner is easily interchangeable and can be connected to the previous model SPM-9700 to provide high-performance surveillance.
- High stability and high throughput. With the optical arm system and the console built into the head, samples can be replaced by simply moving the head. Since samples can be replaced without turning off the laser, the laser emission characteristics remain very stable even after the sample is replaced. This eliminates the need to readjust the optical axis or other parameters associated with stopping the laser. This means that analysis time can be reduced.
- Console mounting equipment ensures ease and safety of its installation.
- A wide range of 3D rendering features using the mouse. Images can be freely rotated, scaled, and Z-axis panned using the mouse for intuitively adjustable viewing angle or magnification level. Using sophisticated analytical tools such as the texture function, which displays the physical properties of the sample superimposed on height information, or the 3D cross-section profile analysis function, greatly improves the efficiency of image inspection work.ерізу, значно підвищує ефективність роботи з перевірки зображення.
- Ease of operation significantly reduces observation time. Guidance function that helps the user perform procedures, navigation function that eliminates uncertainty about the observation position, and other functions that ensure fast and smooth examination performance.
- System functionality and expandability. A wide range of measurement modes and excellent system expandability help ensure reliable measurements, regardless of the properties that a wide variety of samples may have, such as hardness or electrical conductivity. By adding a climate chamber, the SPM-9700HT scanning probe microscope transforms into a WET-SPM system.
Areas of application
- three-dimensional image of the surface relief of samples of metals, semiconductors, ceramics, macromolecules and biological objects with a magnification of several thousand or millions of times.
- measuring the value of the following physical surface properties with spatial resolution down to a fraction of a nanometer:
- mechanical (friction force, adhesion, stiffness, elasticity)
- electrical (potential, conductivity)
- magnetic (magnetization distribution)
SPM-9700HT can be used in materials science, semiconductor industry, biology, medicine, physical and chemical research.
