Super Resolution Optical Microscope for Materials Science – Nanopsis M
The Nanopsis M is the worlds most powerful wide-field optical microscope
The Nanopsis M is a super resolution microscope designed specifically for the materials science market. Using patented Super resolution Microsphere Amplifying Lens (SMAL) technology, it incorporates revolutionary microsphere imaging optics. This technology offers unrivalled optical imaging beyond the diffraction limit enabling it to resolve features down to 50nm in white light, depending on the sample.
Microsphere Technology
Microsphere technology is the holy grail of optical microscopy that gives optical microscopes super resolution capabilities. Nanopsis are the first company in the world to commercialise the technology.
Using a precisely crafted polymer sphere, the Nanopsis M is able to resolve features beyond the diffraction limit of light using optical microscopy.
Choice of Spheres
A range of spheres are available to suit your application:
- Smaller spheres provide better resolutions
- Larger spheres longer working distances
Fast and Affordable
The Nanopsis M is an elegantly simple instrument that requires no special operating conditions and no coating making it non-destructive as well. It is also very affordable and significantly cheaper than any other super resolution microscope on the market.
With results available in just seconds, there is no need to be waiting around for access to expensive instrumentation.
The conventional objective allows you to easily locate areas of interest and then once identified you can quickly swap in the x400 SMAL lens to image features like never before.
Areas of Application
Super resolution optical microscopy will open doors to many fields that were only previously possible with SEM and TEM. Some of these include:
- Materials science
- Graphene
- Nanomaterials
- Metallurgy
