New Affordable Scanning Probe Microscope with Advanced Capabilities available from Nanounity
Nanounity announces that they now offer the NT-MDT Solver Nano Scanning Probe Microscope (SPM). The Solver Nano is an affordable SPM with advanced measurement capabilities. The Solver Nano offers research capability at a low cost of ownership.
Santa Clara, CA (PRWEB) January 25, 2012. Nanounity announces that they are now offering The NT-MDT Solver Nano SPM. The Solver Nano is an SPM that offers advanced features and capability for users with research needs or for new SPM users in an ergonomic compact design at an affordable price.
The Solver Nano is a complete SPM, offering Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) techniques. Notable features include advanced software, digital control electronics, easy to align AFM probe holder design and optional educational measuring head for teaching purposes.
The system comes standard with many advanced imaging modes and features that are typically found on higher priced AFM’s including Scanning Kelvin Probe Microscopy (SKM), Magnetic Force Microscopy (MFM), Scanning Spreading Resistance Imaging (SSRM), Piezo Force Microscopy (PFM) and 100x100x10 micron closed-loop high resolution scanner, that works in both high and low voltage modes.
The Solver Nano complements the existing line of NT-MDT AFM systems Nanounity distributes in the United States, by offering advanced research capability in an affordable, compact and easy to use SPM system. More ifo about this affordable Scanning Probe Microscope.
Nanounity Receives Topcon Aquila SEM Order from University of South Florida
Nanounity, a leading distributor of nanoscale imaging and analysis instrumentation, has received an order and successfully installed a Topcon Aquila Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) at the University of South Florida.

Nanounity announces that the University of South Florida has purchased and successfully accepted the Topcon Aquila Compact SEM. The Aquila is a compact system that seamlessly integrates SEM with optical microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The system bridges the gap between SEM, optical microscopy and microanalysis.
The system was selected by the electron microscopy facility in the department for integrative biology. The facility provides microscopy services to all research departments at the University of South Florida, as well as companies and institutes in the greater Tampa area. The Topcon Aquila was chosen over tabletop SEMs and benchtop SEMs because of its ease-of-use, unique integration of SEM and optical microscopy, and advanced features normally found in more expensive full size SEM systems.
Topcon Aquila SEM Available from Nanounity.
The new Topcon Aquila Compact Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is now available from Nanounity. The Aquila seamlessly integrates SEM with optical microscopy, and Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS). The Aquila bridges the gap between SEM, Optical Microscopy and Microanalysis in a compact system at low cost of ownership.
August 1, 2011 Nanounity announces that it has entered into an agreement with Topcon to distribute their Aquila Hybrid Scope in the U.S. and Canada. The Aquila is a compact scanning electron microscope (SEM) combined with an optical microscope, capable of microanalysis with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) that brings the strength of all three techniques together in a compact design.
The Aquila is an all in one system; it’s fast, easy to use, sits right next to your desk and all you have to do is plug it into a standard electrical outlet. Notable features include 30x optical microscope, macro to micro navigation of the entire sample, motorized X, Y, tilt and rotatable stage, fully controlled by software.
With an SEM magnification range up to 50,000x, acceleration voltage range from 1kV to 20kV, and state of the art EDS detector from EDAX, the system allows you to do real microanalysis with a compact SEM. The Aquila offers truly useful functionality, optical, SEM and microanalysis, without the high cost normally associated with SEMs.
The Aquila complements Nanounity’s lines of Atomic Force Microscopes, conventional Scanning Electron Microscopes, Stylus and Optical profilometers. The company offers a comprehensive suite of imaging and analytical solutions for all budget ranges, user levels and applications.
Information about the Topcon Aquila Compact SEM is available online at http://www.nanounity.com, or by calling Nanounity at 1-408-235-8888.
