The FreeSpirit Instruments x Phadcalc Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) Analysis Testing Center Landing in Chengdu, Combining High-End Instruments and Professional Services to Accurately Empower Scientific Research

On September 25, 2025, the signing ceremony of the Phadcalc & FreeSpirit Instruments Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) Analysis Testing Center was successfully held in Chengdu.

Lei Yin, a representative of the FreeSpirit Instruments team, visited Phadcalc’s Chengdu headquarters and attended the ceremony with Dr. Ning Wang (founder and CEO of Phadcalc), marking the official launch of the in-depth cooperation between the two parties in the field of high-end precision testing and injecting new momentum into the scientific research and innovation ecosystem.

Signing Site: Discussing Industry Pain Points and Anchoring New Direction of Cooperation

At the ceremony, Dr. Ning Wang had an in-depth dialogue with representatives from the FreeSpirit Instruments team focusing on core issues such as experimental equipment and technical services.

Both parties agreed that while China is currently experiencing rapid development in certain cutting-edge scientific research fields, high-end testing equipment still faces challenges such as “fragmented testing resources and delayed service responses”, which have become bottlenecks constraining scientific research efficiency and industrial upgrading.

FreeSpirit Instruments has always been committed to building high-end precision measurement equipment, and Phadcalc’s leading achievements in building an all-ecological scientific research service system are highly consistent with FreeSpirit Instruments’ equipment technology advantages. Dr. Ning Wang mentioned: “The cooperation between the two parties can achieve the seamless connection of ‘equipment + service’, allowing high-end atomic force microscopes (AFM) to truly enter the front line of scientific research and serve industry needs”.

With the signing of the contract and the unveiling completed, the Phadcalc- FreeSpirit Instruments Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) Analysis Testing Center was officially launched. Subsequently, under the leadership of Dr. Ning Wang, representatives of the FreeSpirit Instruments team visited the Phadcalc Computing Self-operated Laboratory and Phadcalc Computing Chengdu Computing Center.

This cooperation focuses on the three core directions of “high-precision topography characterization”, “physical property analysis” and “industrial-grade detection and calibration”, and is committed to providing one-stop atomic force microscope (AFM) detection solutions for universities, scientific research institutes and broader semiconductor companies.

FreeSpirit Instruments: A Leader in High-End Atomic Force Microscope (AFM), Hard-Core Strength Builds a Solid Foundation for Cooperation

As the “core strength of equipment” in this cooperation, the strength of FreeSpirit Instruments can be called the “benchmark in the field of domestic precision measurement” - behind it are solid technological accumulation and dazzling industry results:

1. Rich team experience: The core team members are all from the Precision Instruments Department of Tianjin University. Chief scientist Dr. Sen Wu has more than 10 years of experience in the development of atomic force microscope (AFM) equipment, and has licensed mask repair technology to the international giant Bruker.

2. Solid patent barriers: It has a total of 8 invention patents and 3 utility model patents, and its core technologies cover key areas such as “True3D scanning”, “3D orthogonal probe”, and “automatic probe changing system”.

3. Top-tier core equipment: FreeSpirit Instruments’ atomic force microscope (AFM) product line covers the full spectrum from research - grade to industrial - grade to metrology - grade applications, with performance metrics reaching world-class standards. This equipment serves as the core backbone of the analysis and testing center.

Phadcalc: A Full Ecological Scientific Research Service Platform, Integrating Advantages to Release Synergistic Value

If FreeSpirit Instruments is the “hardware core”, Phadcalc is the “service center” - as an overall solution for scientific research and technical support covering “simulation computing, scientific research computing power, experimental testing, and academic training”, Phadcalc’s advantage is to better connect equipment to the front line of scientific research:

1. For research users: They can access world-class atomic force microscope (AFM) testing services without the need for substantial equipment investment and accelerate the delivery of research outcomes combined with professional interpretation by Phadcalc engineers.

2. For enterprise users: They can quickly obtain high-precision inspection data of core products such as semiconductor wafers and display panels to facilitate quality control and technology iteration.

Providing Professional Testing Services and Gaining a Deep Reputation

1. Team strength: They have a full-time professional technical team of 90+, covering multiple business fields. Among them, the professional experimental testing team can provide professional testing support in materials, biology, environment and other directions;

2. Resource network: Cooperating with 2,000+ universities, scientific research institutes and enterprises, and serving a total of 100,000+ customers, the construction of Phadcalc’s self-operated laboratories complies with national standards, ensuring reliable test results;

3. Service model: Provide “customized testing solutions + rapid response services”, which can flexibly adjust the testing plan to match the scientific research project cycle, and solve the problems of “long cycle and difficult communication” of traditional testing.

Future Outlook: Jointly Draw a New Blueprint for High-End Testing Scientific Research

The establishment of the Atomic Force Microscope Analysis Testing Center is not only the starting point for the cooperation between Phadcalc and FreeSpirit Instruments, but also the epitome of “collaborative breakthrough” in China’s scientific research services and high-end equipment manufacturing fields.

In the future, the two parties will further deepen the linkage, actively expand the application boundaries of equipment, allow high-end testing resources to reach more front-line scientific research, and promote the transformation of scientific research results into industry. At the same time, Phadcalc will continue to focus on technical services to help the high-quality development of scientific research in China!
