Bruker Dimension Icon

Location: B2.02

Description

The Bruker Dimension Icon is convenient for low noise, large sample analysis, which provides a 90 micron scan range system with a low noise closed loop XYZ scanner. The Icon supports PeakForce QNM Imaging to allow researchers to image sample topography and map nanomechanical properties simultaneously (1 MPa - 50 GPa modulus). It also features a number of electrical characterisation modes with increased sensitivity and dynamic range.

The instrument is now equipped with TAC Heater/Cooler stage.The Dimension Icon heater/cooler enables atomic force microscopy (AFM) at both reduced (down to –35ºC) and elevated temperatures (up to 250ºC) in a controlled environment. Primary components of the system include a heated probe holder, a heating element and/or a heating-cooling element, and a Thermal Applications Controller (TAC).
