There has been a lot of discussion on what it takes to claim a system as a "high speed" atomic force microscope. Bruker put this question (subsequently dubbed the Bruker Challenge) to the AFM community on LinkedIn. The answer was clear: baseline criteria on standard samples must be demonstrated. The consensus was that the criteria for claiming high speed AFM was at least an order of magnitude speed improvements on the Celgard™, tip-check, and calibration grating. In this video Bruker shows high speed performance on the three qualification samples. Data speaks loudest and last. Note our Celgard™ data is at 23Hz! Not 9.77Hz.
