柏林，2010年4月26日（美国商业资讯） - 布鲁克今天宣布，已授予110万美元的合同，以提供定制的N8 Titanos（TM）大型样本原子力显微镜（AFM）向美国商务部的美国国立商学院标准和技术（NIST）。NIST的精密工程部（PED）将在其制造工程实验室使用该仪器，其主要重点是需要可追溯的AFM（T-AFM）的计量应用。
The T-AFM instrument will provide fundamental traceable nanoscale length metrology for NIST, which serves customers in industries such as semiconductor manufacturing, optics and photonics, data storage and biomedical. The instrument will be installed at NIST's Gaithersburg, MD facilities and will be used to measure various parameters such as height, pitch surface roughness, and line-width roughness. A requirement is on-board metrology traceable to the SI (International System of Units) definition of the meter, which is implemented through laser interferometry using 633 nm wavelength Iodine-stabilized He-Ne lasers in all three axes.
布鲁克的下一代N8 TITANOSwas announced in December 2009. The system is designed to provide highest stability and precision in surface measuring applications down to atomic resolution. The single-plane architecture with rigid granite base provides significant advantages over multi-component metal translation systems. TheN8 TITANOS可以容纳高达300毫米x 300毫米尺寸的样品，并且可以配备其他检查技术，例如光学显微镜。其噪声水平最低的AFM性能（RMS（Z）<0.05 nm）可以为计量测量提供最高质量的结果。
Dr. Frank Saurenbach, Bruker Nano Vice President for AFM, commented: "Bruker Nano has many years of experience in traceable AFM for metrology purposes. We have already supplied a similar instrument to the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), NIST's German counterpart. This system has been in service for 6 years, providing excellent results. We are delighted to have won this important NIST order, demonstrating Bruker's ability to design and manufacture highest performance AFM products."
AFM Bruker Nano首席技术官Hans-Achim博士补充说：“我们期待NIST的PED从最近的各种进步中受益匪浅N8 TITANOS. The even further increased stability of the system is designed to provide traceable AFM results of highest accuracy and precision."
