Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has evolved into a pivotal tool for investigating surfaces at the nanometre scale, providing detailed insight into both topographical and mechanical characteristics. This ...
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is an advanced material imaging technique, which is able to provide accurate topographic images of a surface. It was created by Gerd Binning and Heinrich Rohrer in 1986 ...
New model extracts stiffness and fluidity from AFM data in minutes, enabling fast, accurate mechanical characterization of living cells at single-cell resolution. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Cells are not ...
Invented 30 years ago, the atomic force microscope has been a major driver of nanotechnology, ranging from atomic-scale imaging to its latest applications in manipulating individual molecules, ...
Some of the common types of nanostructures are nanopillars, cylindrical nanotubes, nanowires, and nanospheres. The mechanical properties of a component are dependent on the type of nanostructure or ...
Over the last century, humans have experienced multiple severe viral outbreaks, including the Spanish flu and other influenza epidemics, HIV, SARS-CoV, MERS, Ebola, and the recent SARS-CoV2 pandemic.
