Description
An Atomic Force Microscope (Park NX10) has been used to measure surface height (Z) and thermal conductivity variations of a sample OREX-800055-9. Images are created using Conductivity Contrast Mode. Measured forward current is proportional to sample thermal conductivity. These images are our first look at the sample and therefor may not have been collected under optimal conditions. Latter images may have different collection parameters.
