Product Definition:
The definition of materials research AFMs is Atomic Force Microscopes that are used specifically for the purpose of materials research. The importance of these microscopes is that they allow researchers to study the physical and chemical properties of various materials at a very small scale. This can provide them with valuable information about how different materials interact with one another, and help them to develop new and improved materials for use in a variety of applications.
High-Resolution AFMs:
High-Resolution AFMs (HRAs) are also known as high-resolution microscopes. They possess the ability to resolve details at a sub-cellular level and can provide images with higher spatial resolution than conventional optical microscopes. The resolution of HRAs is measured in Angstroms (A). Higher the number, better the image quality.
The most commonly used resolutions for materials research on microorganisms are between 40,000 A to 1 million A; i.
High-Speed AFMs:
High-speed AFMs (Fast Atom Bombardment Microscopes) are used in Materials Research AFMs for the characterization of materials under extreme conditions. The usage of these microscopes is increasing owing to their ability to provide high-resolution images at a faster rate, which enables researchers and material scientists to observe and analyze processes taking place within the sample with ease.
Application Insights:
The market is segmented by application into graphene and 2D materials, battery materials, polymers research, and others. Graphene and 2D materials segment dominated the overall industry in terms of revenue share in 2017. The high-resolution anisotropic force microscopes are used to study the properties of these two dimensional sheets including their strength as well as their ability to conduct electricity.
Battery Materials and Polymer Research segments are expected to grow at a significant rate over the forecast period owing to increasing demand for electric vehicles across various regions coupled with rising concerns regarding environmental pollution levels due to excessive usage of fossil fuels in vehicles that run on gasoline or diesel fuel. These factors have led researchers working on batteries towards developing new ways of fabricating AFM probes for studying different phases such as electrode material composites or coatings during recharging processes among others which is expected fuel market growth over the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in terms of revenue with a share of over 40% in 2017. This is attributed to the presence of key manufacturers and research institutes such as National University, Singapore, Nanyang Technological University, and The Research Institute Of Microelectronics. Moreover, Asia Pacific has one of the largest graphene reserves globally which is expected to boost market growth over the forecast period.
Europe was estimated to be valued at USD X million in 2017 owing to high demand for materials research equipment from various industries including automotive & transportation; energy storage & renewable energy; consumer electronics; aerospace & defense among others that are driving innovation across all industry verticals resulting into increased adoption rate for AFM technology across this region.
North America accounted for a significant share owing to increasing investments by government organizations towards R&D activities related battery materials.
