The network aims at bringing together working groups which are primarily interested in the metrological use of Scanning Probe Microscopes [SPM] to establish traceability and to develop calibration methods, and users and manufacturers to investigate these methods in practice.The network is planned to strengthen the European position in micro- and nanotechnology in application and hopefully also in production.Industrial users are included to ensure that the practical aspects of the work will remain in the scope.The role of our group at Åbo Akademi University is to supply samples to be tested with novel calibration algorithms and standards developed by the other partners.
