Abstract:Long-ranged double layer interactions and specific tip penetration through the scanned layers should be considered when atomic force microscopy (AFM) is used to probe soft samples such as surfactants or biological material within liquid media. Therefore, AFM imaging of soft nanostructures requires a careful adjust of the applied force and the scanning velocity. A paramount advantage of this technique is that cells immersed in liquids can be imaged under physiological conditions. On the other hand, confocal Ram… Show more
