Force Modulation Mode (FMM)
Mapping Nanoscale Mechanical Properties

Force Modulation Mode (FMM) is an advanced Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) technique that allows for high-resolution mapping of mechanical properties at the nanoscale. This powerful mode is crucial for studying materials with nonuniform mechanical characteristics, making it especially valuable in materials science and polymer research.

Key Features

  • High Sensitivity: Detect subtle variations in mechanical properties across sample surfaces

  • Excellent Spatial Resolution: Achieve lateral resolution down to nanometer scale

  • Quantitative Measurements: Map relative differences in elastic modulus and viscoelasticity

  • Wide Dynamic Range: Suitable for a broad spectrum of materials, from soft polymers to rigid composites

  • Integration with Other Modes: Combine FMM with electrical or thermal property mapping for comprehensive analysis
