The Boom Microscopes and the STM

Boom microscopes offer an array of microscopes with special and specific functions that fits to your need. There are different microscopes offered by the boom microscopes such as the scanning tunneling microscope, also called the STM. The STM functions through a scanning mechanism which constantly adjusts to fit the height of the probe in order to maintain the tunneling current stable. Following these small, often unseen adjustments, a picture of the curved lines of the surface is produced.
