Through a novel combination of machine learning and atomic force microscopy, researchers in China have unveiled the molecular ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has evolved into an indispensable tool for nanoscale imaging and fabrication, enabling both high-resolution surface characterisation and precise nanomachining. By ...

Researchers have used tip-scan high-speed atomic force microscopy combined with an optical microscope to observe light-induced deformation of azo-polymer films. The process could be followed in real ...

We know that the process of viral uptake into cells begins with interactions between proteins hemagglutinin and neuraminidase ...

First invented in 1985 by IBM in Zurich, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is a scanning probe technique for imaging. It involves a nanoscopic tip attached to a microscopic, flexible cantilever, which is ...

AILA can now manage this instrument, make real-time decisions during experiments, and generate results independently.

AFAM operates by exciting the sample with ultrasonic waves while simultaneously probing the surface with an AFM tip. The ultrasonic waves cause the sample to vibrate, and the AFM tip detects these ...

A KAIST research team has developed a technology to directly observe nanoscale water droplets in real time and calculate their contact angles based on their shape. Observing how liquids like water ...

Current optical and electron microscopy imaging techniques are not suited for measuring the dynamic characteristics of living microorganisms at tiny scales due to complex sample preparation methods or ...
