The 2014 Requimte AFM workshop was held during Easter week, 14th to the 17th of April. The course keeps on growing, and this year we had 15 students attend. Once again, they came from far and wide for the course, and it was great to meet them all. It seems this course really fills a worldwide need, because we had students fly from as far as Malaysia and Washington DC to attend. The other students came from the Czech Republic (lots of them!), Germany, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands and Poland.

I have this poster up in the AFM lab here. I made it to save me drawing out how AFMs work everytime I need to explain it to new students or visitors! I saw someone photographing it the other day, so I though I'd make it available here. Click the image below to get the .pdf of the full poster.

Many people have asked me for a copy of this simple figure, showing how the AFM works. It's available for download below as a high quality .ppt file.

UPDATE: The site has been upgraded to new back-end code. This should help stability and enable new features in the future. Hopefully all the old pages are working now on the new code. If you see any problems, let me know!

The design of the site was changed a little, it looks kind of plain now, maybe I'll revert to the old look later. 

There is now a new AFM Image Gallery, which contains more images than before, organised in categories and a few by instrument.
