Molecular Vista “Vista 75” AFM-IR instrument

Combining AFM with IR (AFM-IR) spectroscopy

Vista 75 has been made more compact. With a completely new acoustic enclosure, Vista 75 now takes up over 60% less space than Vista One. Easy sample access and a one-handed AFM head clamp make tip and sample exchanges a breeze. The lightweight removable enclosure and open design make optical alignments easy.

Offering the highest resolution nanoscale chemical analysis instruments available.

  • Sub-5 nm IR spatial resolution
  • Unique chemical identification capability

Features

  • Quick-change optics
    • Pre-aligned optics make switching between PiFM + PiF-IR, s-SNOM, and Raman effortless
  • Self-contained system
    • No need for a special environment. Vista 75 is complete with built in vibration isolation, and a temperature controlled acoustic enclosure with dry air.
  • Ultimate spectro-nanoscopy
    • Photo-induced force microscopy (PiFM) and Photoinduced force infrared (PiF-IR) spectroscopy are the leading nano-IR techniques.
  • 75 mm sample stage travel
    • Sample size no longer matters. If it fits on the stage, Vista 75 can provide results.
  • Exceptional AFM performance
    • With an 80 µm (optional 100 µm) xy-scanner and a dual z feedback system, our AFM is top notch.
  • Dynamic laser control
    • The optical multiplexer handles alignments, polarisation, and normalisation automatically for effortless laser control.
