About us
This group is for all people interested in DIY projects, prototypes, electronics, hardware/software, and a community of technologists.

We meet in person once a week - every Thursday night - so look out for those events in particular. The topics rotate.

Scanning Tunneling Microscope - Lab Day - Scanning and Post Processing Images #4
Rockville Memorial Library, Rockville Town Square Plaza, 21 Maryland Ave, Rockville, MD, USMeet us in the Rockville Library, Collaboration room #4 where we will attempt to run clean scans of gold samples, and then clean up that data with post processing. This is a high sensitivity experiment, and we do not plan on being successful so early. But we've had promising results lately - so we will be putting in the time.

Our community is building (and documenting for other teams) how to build a scanning tunneling microscope using a mix of common and 3D printed parts. This will allow us to scan and visualize a single atom - an ambitious we are doing over the course of a few months.
The MoCo Makers community is one of the most innovative and competent groups in Maryland, and we've done everything from publishing cancer research, to launching products, winning grants, and inspiring thousands.
Now our biggest challenge yet has appeared. We are building a Scanning Tunneling Microscope, that will allow us to scan and visualize single atoms.
To get a better idea of what we are doing, see our reference project here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7N3OqTEq08g
All starting CAD, code, and reference files should exist. However, let's be the first Maker community to document the build process and share it with learners around the world.
We will be publishing our work here - https://hackaday.io/project/202816-qt-panda
