"We are very excited to welcome Amir to our technical sales group," said John Green, Senior Vice President of Sales for Asylum Research. "He perfectly matches the background of our team members -numerous years of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) experience and scientific applications background. His broad experience working with scientists from the applications side and his extensive knowledge of the instrumentation will make him a great resource for customers looking for straightforward answers in AFM.

Asylum Research, the technology leader in atomic force microscopy, has global sales and service, including offices in Germany, UK, and Taiwan. Its product line of scanning probe/atomic force microscopes including the CypherTM and MFP-3DTM AFM family, has set the industry standard for technological innovation for both imaging and characterizing many properties of surfaces and structures at the nanoscale. Its AFM/SPMs are used by academic and industrial customers across the world for a wide range of materials and bioscience applications.

About Asylum Research, an Oxford Instruments company
Asylum Research is the technology leader in atomic force microscopy AFM for both materials and bioscience applications, dedicated to innovative instrumentation for nanoscience and nanotechnology. Founded in 1999, Asylum Research has over 300 years combined AFM/SPM experience among our staff. Asylum Research AFMs are used for a variety of nanoscience applications in material science, physics, polymers, chemistry, biomaterials, and bioscience, including single molecule mechanical experiments on DNA, protein unfolding and polymer elasticity, as well as force measurements for biomaterials, chemical sensing, polymers, colloidal forces, adhesion, and more. Asylum’s MFP-3DTM has set the standard for AFM technology, with unprecedented precision and flexibility. The MFP-3D is the first AFM with true independent piezo positioning in all three axes, combined with low noise closed-loop feedback sensor technology. The MFP-3D offers both top and bottom sample viewing and easy integration with most commercially-available inverted optical microscopes.

The Cypher TMAFM is the highest resolution fast scanning AFM, now with environmental control. Cypher provides low-drift closed loop atomic resolution for the most accurate images and measurements possible today, point defect atomic resolution, >20X faster AC imaging with small cantilevers, Spot-OnTM automated laser and photodetector alignment for easy setup, integrated thermal, acoustic and vibration control, and broad support for all major AFM/SPM scanning modes and capabilities.

Asylum Research offers the lowest cost of ownership of any AFM company with the industry-best five-year warranty, legendary product and applications support. Asylum Research is dedicated to providing the most technically advanced AFMs for researchers who want to take their experiments to the next level.
