*Scanning head can be configured to serve as a stand-alone device for specimens of unlimited sizes.
** 200 мm scan range is possible with the unique DualScan™ mode when scanning by sample and scanning by probe can be done simultaneously.
*** Built-in capacitive sensors have extremely low noise and any area down to 50x50 nm can be scanned with closed-loop control.
