Atomic Force Microscopy in Metallography

  • Published:
Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope

The paper presents the research results of the micro- and nanostructure of the type 30Х13 (AISI 420S) stainless steel based on the atomic force microscopy (AFM) investigations. Using the AFM images, the phase composition of AISI 420S steel is identified by the scanning and optical electron microscopes. The grain size of carbide inclusions and their structural properties are studied in this paper.
