“…Since then, these techniques have not only been used to visualize a wide variety of samples from the µm-scale down to the single molecule and atom resolution, [3][4][5] they have also been used for sample manipulation and for performing a variety of spectroscopies providing information on e.g., chemical identity, mechanical, electrical, electrochemical and magnetic properties. [6][7][8][9] However, despite the possibilities that they offer, several bottlenecks are preventing broader use of SPMs. One of the major barriers to SPM use is the need for highly trained users to perform time-consuming experiments and to analyze and correctly interpret results that are often susceptible to artifacts.…”
