Aug. 30, 2006 — Ambios Technology, a Santa Cruz, Calif.-based maker of high performance, low cost bench top metrology and measurement equipment, announced its Isochamber, an environmental isolation system designed to optimize the performance of AFMs and other surface imaging tools.
The device is intended to offer a superior environmental chamber for isolating high resolution metrology instrumentation from building vibrations, interior acoustic noise, and thermally induced drift in order to get top performance.
The Isochamber provides 30dB of acoustic isolation, and features an integral 0.5Hz vibration isolation platform from Minus K Technology. Ambios says the result is better than 99 percent isolation efficiency acoustically and mechanically in key frequency regimes.
