An AFM instrument uses a probe with an atomically sharp tip to scan over the surface of a material. There are two main scanning modes with an AFM instrument: contact or dynamic (tapping) mode. Both ...
Biological samples are often analyzed using atomic force microscopes (AFM), as they deliver a high resolution and are capable of operating under a range of physiological conditions. Using AFM fixed ...
