XE-70

The XE-70 is the newest addition to its award winning "Cross-talk Elimination" (XE) series of AFM/SPMs. Like its more expensive siblings, XE-70 features decoupled XY and Z scanners to essentially eliminate intrinsic bowing that exists with other tube-scanner-based Atomic Force Microscopes. With True Non-Contact mode imaging, 1-micron resolution on-axis optical viewing, flexible sample handling (accommodating samples up to 100mm in diameter and 20mm in thickness and weighing up to 500 grams), and other innovative technologies of XE-100, the XE-70 provides the winning combination of affordability and advanced SPM technology to the researchers.

XE-100
The XE-100 is the first product in the award winning "Cross-talk Elimination" (XE) series of AFM/SPMs, provides the most accurate way to scan your samples with ultimate AFM resolution and reliability via non-contact AFM. The XE Series represents breakthroughs in every aspect of AFM technology - advanced scan system, on-axis optical viewing with the highest optical resolution (1 micron), flexible sample handling (accommodating samples up to 100mm in diameter and 20mm in thickness and weighing up to 500 grams), and True Non-Contact imaging. XE-series AFMs achieve the ultimate resolution of AFM since the sharp end of a tip is preserved in True Non-Contact imaging mode unlike in contact or intermittent (also known as tapping) imaging modes. With motorized focus for on-axis optics, XE-100 provides added versatility to the operation of AFM within the acoustic enclosure.

XE-BIO

The XE-Bio is a fully functional, liquid Atomic Force Microscope designed specifically for the biomedical and life science markets. The modular design of the XE-Bio provides the user with a wide array of imaging modes including the revolutionary scanning Ion Conductance Microscopy (ICM) module. The ICM module is specifically designed for non-contact in-liquid imaging where the nanopipette probe senses ion current to feedback its position for samples completely immersed in a liquid buffer. Ideal for imaging soft biological samples, such as living cells, ICM can easily be adapted to a host of qualitative and quantitative imaging applications including, but not limited to, electro-physiology, surface topography and cell motility studies.

XE-150
With the arrival of the XE-150, Park System's large sample AFM, non-contact AFM imaging has become the most feasible and practical way to scan your large samples with the ultimate AFM resolution and reliability. The XY motorized sample stage is optimized for large sample (150 x 150 x 20 mm) placement and allows full travel of the entire sample (optional accessories can accommodate up to 200 x 200 mm samples). Together with its own acoustic enclosure and advanced active vibration isolation system, the XE-150 guarantees the ultimate low noise performance. As the key feature of the XE-Series, true non-contact mode achieves an unprecedented tip-sample distance, combined with superb tip and sample preservation. The direct on-axis optics is the first in the industry that revolutionizes the way AFM users view their samples by providing the natural on-axis view from the top with unprecedented clarity and resolution.

XE-200

The XE-200 is an AFM with increased capacity that supports 200 mm wafer investigation. In addition to the precise scan performance provided by True Non-Contact mode, the XE-200 offers users an encoded XY stage that travels over the entire 200 mm x 200 mm sample area, an enlarged XY scan range of 200 μm x 200 μm, and a Z scan range of 25 μm. Also, the industrial-grade automation features of the instrument greatly minimize the user‘s required participation during system operation

easyScan 2
Starting small doesn’t mean buying a new system each time your needs change. With the new easyScan 2 series you can just add the additional parts to your existing easyScan 2 system, building and expanding your possibilities as you go. A basic STM experiment can quickly lead to a desire for more, which in turn generates needs that outgrow your existing system. The easyScan 2 series offers you the flexibility to purchase a quality instrument at an affordable price and then to expand and customise as and when you need to. 

The easyScan 2 is designed with a simple building block structure that doesn’t take up your whole work space. The controller electronics and power adapter are all contained in one box. Modular inserts extend the controller's abilities and can take you from atomic resolution on graphite to MFM and lithography. Various scan heads and software modules add to the flexibility of the easyScan 2 system and a Micrometre Translation stage or a Signal Module further expand its possibilities.

Mobile S
The Mobile S Cordless Edition is a truly mobile AFM that boasts a rechargeable battery that can power it for up to five hours, while tipping the scales at a very transportable 4.7 kg. Instead of being tied down by mains cables and bulky controllers, all you need now is a laptop, and the world is your lab. This additional freedom is perfect for laboratories sharing an AFM or for experts performing measurements in the field, where simple transport and minimal setup time are of the essence.

Nanite
The Nanite is composed of a mountable AFM and an automated X/Y/Z stage.  Its scripting capability and motorized X/Y/Z stage make it possible for users to prepare a series of routine measurements and leave the microscope to measure on its own, focusing their skills on more challenging tasks. Whether your process quality control requires measurements at random points of a large surface or on multiple samples in a reproducible location, the Nanite can do it. Fast and reproducible cantilever exchange and the precise re-positioning of the scan head ensure that your batch program performs the same measurement it did six months ago.
