Product catalog summary
Introduction to Cypher ES
The Cypher ES is an advanced Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) that offers high-resolution fast scanning capabilities with full environmental control. It is designed to resolve atomic point defects and the DNA helix, making it suitable for a wide range of research applications.

Environmental Control Features
  • Gas/Liquid Perfusion: The system includes multiple ports for gas and liquid flow-through, allowing perfusion in a droplet to minimize sample volume and simplify cleaning.
  • Temperature Control: Modular sample stages provide precise temperature control without the need for external electronics or cooling pumps.
  • Chemical Compatibility: Constructed with inert materials like fused silica and perfluoroelastomer, the system is compatible with solvents, acids, bases, buffers, and inert gases.

Modular Design
The Cypher ES features a modular design with interchangeable components, including a cantilever holder, cell body, and sample stage, allowing customization for specific research needs.

Performance and Capabilities
The Cypher ES supports a wide range of scan modes, including contact, tapping, phase, force measurements, and more. It is compatible with various research fields such as materials science, polymers, energy research, life sciences, and chemistry.

Component Specifications
  • Cantilever Holders: Available for gas or liquid environments, with options for electrical connections and compatibility with conductive AFM.
  • Cell Bodies: Designed for gas or liquid environments, with options for electrical connections.
  • Sample Stages: Options include heater, cooler-heater, and ambient stages, suitable for different temperature ranges and environments.

Scanner Specifications
  • Scan Range: XY range is 30µm, Z range is 5µm.
  • Noise Levels: Digital LVDT sensors provide low noise levels, achieving lattice resolution with closed-loop scan performance.
  • Drift and Motion: Minimal drift and out-of-plane motion ensure high precision.
