From the Empa research program «Nanotechnology»

Scanning force microscopy at absolute zero, and a novel fiber embossing technique

Sep 9, 2004 | MARTINA PETER

An important condition for successful research in the field of nanotechnology is the availability of the most up-to-date equipment for analysis and synthesis on the nanometer scale. This is the reason why the Empa is constantly extending its range of instruments, which are used to investigate and process materials at the micro and nano level in very innovative ways.
