Applications Modules

The capability of your Dimension Icon AFM can be extended with the addition of several Applications Modules. The addition of specialized hardware and increased software functionality enables the user to undertake:

Although each of the application modules has a separate measurement function, the Applications Modules hardware components have been designed to share as many characteristics as possible in order to simplify installation and exchange of sensors. See Hardware Installation for more information.
