Global Atomic Force Microscope Market 2025 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2031

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Atomic Force Microscope market size was valued at US$ 384 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 488 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 3.5% during review period.

Atomic-force microscopy (AFM) or scanning-force Microscopy (SFM) is a very-high-resolution type of scanning probe microscopy (SPM), with demonstrated resolution on the order of fractions of a nanometer, more than 1000 times better than the optical diffraction limit. AFM provides a 3D profile of the surface on a nanoscale, by measuring forces between a sharp probe (<10 nm) and surface at very short distance (0.2-10 nm probe-sample separation). The probe is supported on a flexible cantilever. The AFM tip “gently” touches the surface and records the small force between the probe and the surface. Atomic force microscopy is arguably the most versatile and powerful microscopy technology for studying samples at nanoscale. It is versatile because an atomic force microscope can not only image in three-dimensional topography, but it also provides various types of surface measurements to the needs of scientists and engineers. It is powerful because an AFM can generate images at atomic resolution with angstrom scale resolution height information, with minimum sample preparation.

Global Atomic Force Microscope key players include Bruker Corporation, JPK Instruments, NT-MDT, Keysight Technologies, Park Systems, etc. Global top five manufacturers hold a share about 80%. Asia-Pacific is the largest market, with a share about 35%, followed by North America, with a share about 30 percent. In terms of product, Industrial Grade AFM is the largest segment, with a share about 60%. And in terms of application, the largest application is Nanomaterials science, followed by Semiconductors and Electronics, Life Sciences and Biology, etc.
