Today we're looking at Atomic Force Microscopy! I built a "macro-AFM" to demonstrate the principles of an atomic force ...

The investigators hypothesized that AFM might be able to identify unique nanomechanical fingerprints (NMFs) in tissue samples ...

The study of biological systems varies from whole organisms, organs, and organoids, down to their building blocks of proteins and cells. At the lower end of the scale, atomic force microscope (AFM) ...

Scientists at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory have reimagined the capabilities of atomic force microscopy, or AFM, transforming it from a tool for imaging nanoscale features ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a method of topographical measurement, wherein a fine probe is raster scanned over a material, and the minute variation in probe height is interpreted by laser ...

Researchers at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, report in the Journal of the American Chemical Societythe use of three-dimensional atomic force microscopy (AFM) and ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has evolved into an indispensable tool for nanoscale investigation, enabling detailed imaging and quantification of surface topography as well as mechanical properties.

Invented in 1986 atomic force microscopy (AFM) has become a valuable tool for life scientists, offering the ability to image aqueous biological samples, like membranes, at nanometer resolution. The ...

Novel developments also focus on quick and high-speed AFM to improve temporal resolution. 2 The combination of AFM with optical microscopy has expanded the number of possible applications, ...

Atomic force microscopy is a powerful technique that has been widely used in materials research, nano-imaging, and bioimaging. It is a topographical metrology approach that is commonly utilized in ...

Two-dimensional (2D) materials, which are only a few atoms thick, are known to exhibit unique electrical, mechanical and ...
