Diatome, the company whom brought you the first diamond knife for Alternating sectioning, and the first diamond knife for for cryo  techniques, as well as the first diamond knife for thick sectioning  has done it again but this time even better.  Introduced this year a diamond knife which may be used at room temperature as well as cryo temperatures for surface sectioning of all kinds of biological and industrial specimens for AFM Investigation.  These special knives offer extremely smooth sample surfaces with the best possible structural preservation. Instead of a section as for TEM, the specimen surface is investigated using AFM.  In order to achieve the  best results for  AFM Investigation only the highest quality diamond knives shall be used.

Diatome ultra AFM and cryo AFM have been specifically tested to ensure that they meet the increased quality requirements of AFM Investigation.
