Our line of products consists of epoxies, polyurethanes, silicones and polysulfides. http://www.azom.com/details.asp?ArticleID=4783 Optical profilers that employ white light interferometry are one of the most accurate and flexible metrology tools for precision three-dimensional surface characterization. They are instrumental in an incredibly diverse range of industrial applications. http://www.azom.com/details.asp?ArticleID=4781 The rapid, accurate, and versatile metrology solutions offered by Veeco's stylus and optical profilers are being utilized by many solar cell manufacturers to increase yield and lower the overall production cost of solar cells. http://www.azom.com/details.asp?ArticleID=4780 This application note describes the advantages of 3D measurement options available through a combination of Veeco's Dektak Stylus Profiler and Vision 3D analysis software. http://www.azom.com/details.asp?ArticleID=4779 Optical profilers are microscopes that use the interference of two beams of light for characterizing surface topographies. Veeco’s new high-definition vertical scanning interferometry (HDVSI) mode uses an algorithm to give subnanometer precision on a range of surfaces in a single measurement http://www.azom.com/details.asp?ArticleID=4778 Dektak stylus profilers provide accurate step height measurements from several nanometers through hundreds of microns, with repeatability down to 7.5 Angstroms. http://www.azom.com/details.asp?ArticleID=4777 Nanoscale thermal analysis (nTA), a novel technique that allows the determination of the local transition temperature on the surface of a material with nanoscale spatial resolution. NTA can help identify materials and their phase separation and component distribution at the nanoscale. http://www.azom.com/details.asp?ArticleID=4776 In this application note, we demonstrate the utility of AFM in delineating the cause of cataracts. High-resolution imaging of native lens membranes and the constitutive protein components was achieved using a customized Veeco atomic force microscope. http://www.azom.com/details.asp?ArticleID=4775 In the present study we used a Veeco Bioscope II atomic force microscope (AFM) to investigate the potential application of force measurements in monitoring the response and binding properties of dopamine D1 receptor upon stimulation with dopamine. http://www.azom.com/details.asp?ArticleID=4774
