Team members

Dr. Daniel Forchheimer received his PhD from KTH in 2015. He has worked extensively with analysis of Intermodulation AFM data to extract physical parameters and enhance image contrast. Daniel is a co-founder of Intermodulation Products and the chief executive officer since 2021. He specializes in sales, software development and scanning probe microscopy-related products.
Dr. Daniel Forchheimer
CEO
Dr. Erik A. Tholén received his PhD from KTH in 2009. His work on parametric amplification in nonlinear superconducting resonant circuits lead to the development of Intermodulation AFM. His postdoctoral work centered on the development of the first Intermodulation Lock-in Analyzer. Erik co-founded Intermodulation Products and was the CEO from inception in 2010 to 2021. He specializes in hardware and software development.
Dr. Erik Tholén
CFO
Dr. Riccardo Borgani has two Master degrees, one from Politecnico di Milano and one from KTH. He received his PhD from KTH in 2018. His thesis developed Intermodulation Electrostatic Force Microscopy (ImEFM), as well as a fast, low-noise method to reconstruct nonlinear current-voltage characteristics for conducting AFM and STM (ImCFM). He went on to perform postdoctoral work at KTH working on fast readout of superconducting qubits. Riccardo joined Intermodulation Products full-time in 2022 after having been on the board and scientific advisory board for several years.
