Event Overview:

This webcast will introduce the technique of photo-induced force microscopy (PiFM), a new nanoscale IR spectroscopy/microscopy technique based on atomic force microscopy (AFM). It can produce topography, chemical maps, and IR absorption spectra with sub-10 nm spatial resolution with minimal sample preparation requirements and without inducing damage. After a brief introduction to the technique, a few application examples from biopharma and material research will be shared.

• PiFM (“Nano FT-IR”) vs FT-IR
• Nanoscale chemical analysis of defect/monolayer residue in modern biotech device manufacturing
• Applications to biopharma and material R&D

Key Learning Objectives:

• What PiFM is and how PiFM provides nanoscale molecular information (109 better than FT-IR)
• Flexibility and versatility of the technique (minimal sample prep, non-destructive, bio, organic, inorganic, etc.)
• Can easily evaluate the technology via contract service
