Microscopy

The Technology Leader in Atomic Force Microscopy

At Oxford Instruments, we specialize in making the best atomic force microscopes for academic research and industrial R&D. Our passion for innovating AFM technology is our driving force, and since then, we have continuously worked to develop higher performance AFMs.

Asylum Research Vero Family of AFMs

Vero AFMs are next-generation AFMs that precisely and accurately measures true tip displacement using Quadrature Phase Differential Interferometry (QPDI). Built on the unrivaled stability and performance of the Cypher AFM family, this unique patented QPDI innovation enables Vero AFMs to provide results with higher accuracy, precision, and repeatability.

• Vero S - Standard model with ultra-high resolution, fast scanning, and a full range of modes for use under ambient sample conditions

• Vero ES - All the performance and features of the Vero S, plus a wide range of exceptional environmental control accessories

• Vero VRS1250 - The world’s most technologically advanced AFM, featuring all three of Asylum’s most advanced AFM innovations: QPDI, video-rate speed imaging, and blueDrive photothermal excitation
