Atomic force microscopy has long relied on the ability to acquire nanoscale chemical information while simultaneously characterizing nanomechanical properties. This article explores a new means of ...

In government, academic, and industrial research and development laboratories, infrared (IR) spectroscopy is regarded as one of the most established analytical measurement methods for characterizing ...

IR spectroscopy is one of the most popular analytical measurement methods used for polymeric material characterization. However, this is mostly resticted to macroscopic analysis as Abbe diffraction ...

Polymers are used in many industries, including food packaging, tire manufacturing, adhesives, and medical-grade plastics. Photothermal atomic force microscope-based infrared spectroscopy (AFM-IR) ...
