Today we're looking at Atomic Force Microscopy! I built a "macro-AFM" to demonstrate the principles of an atomic force microscope, then we look at a real AFM (an nGauge AFM from ICSPI) and do a few ...

Some bacteria deploy tiny spearguns to retaliate against rival attacks. Researchers at the University of Basel have mimicked ...

What Is Atomic Force Microscopy? Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a powerful technique that enables surface ultrastructure visualization at molecular resolution. 1 Besides three-dimensional (3D) ...

Kanazawa University, observe the configuration of different dipeptides on graphite electrodes and the subsequent arrangement ...

AFM is revolutionizing nanobiotechnological research. Within a decade, this unconventional microscope has evolved into a multifunctional toolbox. For the first time, single cellular machineries ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a way to investigate the surface features of some materials. It works by “feeling” or “touching” the surface with an extremely small probe. This provides a ...

For the first time ever, researchers from Japan directly visualized protein translocation across membranes using high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM)—an event that had been biochemically ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM), known for its nanometer-scale resolution and piconewton-scale force sensitivity, offers ...

Supervised feedback microscopy is a powerful tool that allows screening microscopes to deal with larger quantities of samples ...

IR, a novel method combining AFM-IR and force volume imaging for precise nanoscale chemical and mechanical analysis.

Bacteria build nanoweapons when their cell envelope is damaged, striking back with precision. Researchers triggered this ...
