National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation's Division of Industrial
Innovation & Partnerships (ENG/IIP) has funded Xidex research on
Atomic Force Microscopes (AFMs), Carbon Nanotube AFM Tips, Carbon
Nanotube Transistors, Carbon Nanotube Field Emitters and our new
Flexible-Tip AFM mode for high aspect-ratio feature metrology
using carbon nanotube tips.

Army Research Office
The U.S. Army Research Laboratory's Army Research Office (ARO) provided
funding for work by Xidex and The University of Texas at Austin in the
area of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy. This work led to a
demonstration of high-Q torsional oscillators for nuclear spin detection
and is the basis for development of a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Force
Microscope (NMRFM).

National Institute of Standards and Technology
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has funded work
by Xidex in the area of ultrasensitive cantilevers and calibration of our
Dual-Probe NanoCaliperTM AFM. In addition, we
have a working relationship with
Dr. Theodore V. Vorburger,
leader of the Surface and Microform
Metrology Group of the Precision Engineering Division (PED), in the area
of calibrated atomic force microscopy
