PrimeNano is an early stage, privately held analytical instrument company, based in the center of Silicon Valley.
We have commercialized a patented microwave impedance imaging technology, developed at Stanford University. PrimeNano’s ScanWave™ product, introduced in 2013, enables imaging of electrical properties of materials (conductivity and permittivity) at sub-micron dimensions, using atomic force microscopes (AFMs).
As one of the fastest growing instruments companies we have more than doubled our business in 2016 and 2017. For 2018 we are planning to release two new products and almost double again.
