Muscovite Mica Substrates for AFM

Mica is a naturally layered silicate mineral renowned for cleaving along smooth planes to produce atomically flat surfaces, making it an established standard material for high-resolution AFM surface imaging and calibration applications.

Common forms of mica include muscovite, phlogopite, and biotite. In atomic force microscopy and surface characterization research, muscovite mica is widely utilized due to its clean cleavage planes and atomically flat surface structure.

Muscovite mica serves as an atomically flat substrate for AFM sample mounting, instrument calibration, and nanoscale surface characterization in materials science, thin-film analysis, and nanotechnology research.

High-quality mica substrates can be purchased directly from Molecular Imaging, featuring 2 cm dimensions tailored specifically for atomic force microscopy sample preparation, mounting, and calibration workflows.
