Global Atomic-force Microscopy (AFM) Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

Atomic-force microscopy (AFM) is a high-resolution imaging technique used to visualize and analyze surfaces at the nanoscale. Unlike traditional optical microscopy, which relies on light, AFM uses a sharp probe with a tip that is typically only a few nanometers in size. The probe is brought into close proximity to the sample surface, and interactions between the probe and the surface are measured. These interactions include forces such as van der Waals forces, electrostatic forces, and chemical bonding forces. As the probe scans across the surface, these interactions are detected and used to create a detailed topographic map of the sample＇s surface features. AFM can achieve resolutions down to the atomic level, making it a powerful tool for studying surface morphology, measuring surface roughness, and characterizing material properties at the nanoscale. It is widely used in various fields including materials science, nanotechnology, biology, and semiconductor research.

According to DIResearch's in-depth investigation and research, the global Atomic-force Microscopy (AFM) market size was valued at XX Million USD in 2024 and is projected to reach XX Million USD by 2032, with a CAGR of XX% (2025-2032). Notably, the China market has changed rapidly in the past few years. By 2024, China's market size is expected to be XX Million USD, representing approximately XX% of the global market share. By 2032, it is anticipated to grow further to XX Million USD, contributing XX% to the worldwide market share.
