Scanning Probe Microscopy Market Size

The global scanning probe microscopy market is projected to grow from USD 765.2 million in 2021 to USD 928.4 million by 2026 at a CAGR value of 7.2%.

Scanning probe microscopy utilizes the physicochemical interactions between the scanning tip and the sample to generate images of the topography of the sample surface. A scanning probe microscope is used to study samples that have conductive and insulating properties in liquid and gaseous states. The scanning probe microscope generates the image as a function of the relative position of the scanning tip with the sample. The scanning probes are made from piezoelectric materials, advancements in piezoelectric technologies have led to the growth of the SPM industry.
