Peer-reviewed research and real-world case studies showing nanoscale imaging across industries
Capabilities
Throughput and area.
Vector delivers 1,000× faster throughput with large-area nanoscale scanning (20 mm × 20 mm), enabling statistically powerful data collection across entire samples in record time.
Video-rate in any environment.
Capture nanoscale processes in real time at up to 20 fps, across ambient and liquid environments, unlocking dynamic insights previously impossible with conventional AFM/SPM.
Automated processing and analysis.
Built-in AI-driven image processing and feature classification automate complex nanoscale analysis, dramatically reducing manual workload and accelerating time to discovery.
Workflow integration.
Seamlessly integrates into existing lab workflows with minimal sample preparation and non-destructive imaging, delivering immediate results without disrupting operations or requiring specialist expertise.
Reliable repeatability.
Engineered for consistent, repeatable nanoscale measurements, Vector delivers high-confidence, publication-ready data across continuous operation and large sample sets.
Throughput and area
- Capture complete nanoscale data across entire surfaces, eliminating sampling bias and revealing what others miss.
- Achieve sub-atomic resolution across large areas, without sacrificing speed or data quality.
- Generate statistically robust datasets that support reliable decisions in research, quality control, and failure analysis.
Workflow Integration
- Fits your workflow from day one Integrates seamlessly with existing lab processes using standard sample mounts, no disruption, no complex setup.
- Less dependence on specialist operators Automated calibration and analysis reduce training time and remove reliance on highly specialised expertise.
- Consistent performance over time Designed for stable, repeatable operation across extended use, supporting reliable results without constant adjustment.
Automated Measurement
- Automated from capture to insight Measurement, processing, and analysis happen in one continuous workflow,removing manual bottlenecks.
- Faster decisions, not just faster data Real-time classification and visualisation turn complex datasets into immediate, actionable insights.
- Reduced human error Automation ensures consistent measurement and analysis, improving reliability across every sample.
- Scale without increasing workload Process large volumes of data efficiently without adding time, cost, or specialist resource.
Video-Rate Imaging
- Video-rate imaging at the nanoscale, and automated characterisation of the occurring changes. These can be seen and tracked in real-time unlike any other form of nanoscale measurement tool/instrument.
- Images at higher rates and with greater resolutions, working in ambient, liquid, and vacuum environments, including in conditions that would prevent imaging for fast tapping SPMs.
- Zero sample degradation through imaging.
