Scanning Probe Microscope(SPM) SPM+nanoTA2
SPM + nano-TA2 Combined Nano Thermal Analysis System
Combining the Anasys Instruments nano-TA2 nano thermal analysis system with the SPM-9700 enables observation of the 3-dimensional shape of a sample surface, as well as pinpoint thermal analysis. It is now possible to analyze the thermal properties of submicron-level microscopic regions and outer surfaces only, analyses that were impossible with thermal analyzers to date.

Features
PE Surface Image, Observed with the Nano Thermal Probe
This combined system performs thermal analysis by measuring the thermal properties (including glass transitions, softening, and fusion temperatures) of microscopic regions or trace samples utilizing a microscopic thermal probe.
In terms of the measurement method, the nano thermal probe is placed in contact with the sample surface, the probe tip is heated at a constant rate, and the vertical displacement (TMA) of the probe due to the resultant expansion, softening, or thermal changes occurring at the sample surface is then measured. This data is caused by glass transitions and softening. In addition, it is possible to observe the shape of the sample surface while heating the nano thermal probe (Heated Tip AFM).
