01.06.21 Build A DIY AFM | Validating Aerospace Thermal Protection Article | By James F. MacKay, Mad City Labs, Inc.
Atomic force microscopes (AFMs) are versatile tools for characterizing surfaces down to the sub-nanometer scale. Researchers can build their own AFMs for as little as $30,000 using off-the-shelf components such as nanopositioning stages. White Paper | By John McCauley, Ophir Photonics
Additive manufacturing allows for more customized parts using more specialized materials, and will eventually create a more localized, rapid, and agile distribution network. This white paper discusses important laser performance characteristics, how to measure them, and how to keep the laser in spec.
