Mar 30, 2001
Santa Barbara, CA, March 30, 2001 — Following highly successful sessions in '98, '99, and '00, a fourth symposium on Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) was held on Monday, March 5th 2001 at PittCon 2001. The Symposium, chaired by Monte Heaton of AFM leader Digital Instruments/Veeco Metrology Group, focused on a variety of applications of AFM — including biology, materials science, and polymers.

A special talk, given by Dr. Philip Russell of North Carolina State University, entitled "Scanning Probe/Atomic Force Microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy: Complementary Microscopy and Microanalysis" explained the advantages and complementary capabilities of AFM relative to other microscopies (SEM, TEM) and analytical techniques.

This presentation is available for webcast viewing on www.webcasting.com/pittcon through June 5, 2001 and is also available in VHS Video by contacting Digital Instruments, Veeco Metrology Group directly. Please email Mary McKeown-Christie (marym@di.com) with your request.
