What are Some Common Automated Tools in Nanotechnology?
Several automated tools are widely used in nanotechnology: 1. Atomic Force Microscopes (AFM): Used for imaging, measuring, and manipulating materials at the nanoscale. 2. Scanning Electron Microscopes (SEM): Provide detailed images of nanomaterials. 3. Nanoscale Fabrication Tools: Including electron-beam lithography and focused ion beam systems, these tools create nanoscale structures. 4. Automated Pipetting Systems: Used for precise liquid handling in nanoscale experiments. 5. Nanomanipulators: Devices that can manipulate individual nanoparticles or nanotubes with high precision.
