Heating Stage for Nano-RT AFM

Below is a picture of the heating stage that was constructed specifically for the Nano-R™. After constructing the heater stage it can be placed directly into the Nano-R™ AFM. The temperature of the sample will be held constant within around +/- 1 degree. When measuring images in the microscope with the heater on, you can expect to see thermal drift in the AFM images.
