Bristol, UK – 02 October, 2023 – NuNano, a manufacturer of high quality atomic force microscopy (AFM) probes, today announced their global distribution partnership with Oxford Instruments Asylum Research (Santa Barbara, US). The partnership offers customers the opportunity to achieve unparalleled reliability when using NuNano’s range of AFM probes with Oxford Instruments Asylum Research AFM instruments.
“We are delighted to be working in partnership with Asylum Research to offer our AFM probes globally.” said James Vicary, NuNano Co-founder & Managing Director. “There’s a great synergy between the visions of both our companies, for providing the highest quality products and services. Nowhere is this more evident than in our proprietary quality control processes. Since our inception, we have always inspected every probe because, we understand that reliability is key to the work of our customers. A reliable probe supply saves AFM users precious time and resources.”
NuNano’s silicon AFM probes (SCOUT) are available now on the Oxford Instruments eStore and direct from their regional offices. Further probe models will be added in the near future.
Mario Viani, President of Asylum Research, said “We are very excited to begin providing the NuNano probe line to our customers. Our AFM systems are world class and NuNano’s commitment to probe quality, reliability and performance, are directly aligned with our company values.”
