Standard Equipment

SofTouch™:
Patented method of gentle approach of the probe to the sample avoids damage to the sample surface (particularly in soft samples).

Q-Lithic™ Stage:
Solid granite base and support arch for excellent mechanical and thermal stability. Includes Z-axis motion control hardware.

Isotopic Focal System™:
Patented optical system which allows the laser beam to track the cantilever/probe during scanning, greatly increasing sensitivity and virtually eliminating laser light reflections from the sample. It also permits for a 90 degree top-down view, providing for easy laser alignment and positioning of the probe over sample features to be scanned.

AnaLoop™:
Patented analog feedback loop that is digitally controlled with inputs from the keyboard or mouse. It combines the advantages of an analog loop, such as no quantizing errors, with a sampling frequency that is three times faster than current digital feedback loops, obtaining three times the number of data points at equivalent scan rates.

Fast and Automatic Approach:
The beta version of a totally automatic approach has been released that drives the probe toward the sample surface at high speed until it first senses the surface. Then it changes to a slow, soft approach that allows the probe to gently engage the surface and enter feedback condition.

BACK TO TOP

Premounted Cantilevers:
Convenient mounting on stainless steel tabs allows for quick and easy replacement of probes. Quesant supplies contact and intermittent contact probes along with high aspect ratio, Magnetic Force, and metal coated probes (for hardness or conductivity).

ScanAtomic™:
User friendly software operating under Microsoft Windows 98. The software enables the operator to perform even complex operations with ease through selecting menu options in windows organized by functions. Images are displayed at a high screen resolution of 1024 x 768 with 65,000 colors.
