Kanazawa University, have captured real-time images showing how a key brain enzyme organizes itself to help memory formation.

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 ...

Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) has evolved into a central technique in nanotechnology, providing three-dimensional imaging and precise measurements at the atomic scale. Its ability to probe surfaces by ...

Learn how multi-scale insights from AFM and AFP enhance hybrid bond integrity and device performance.

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) ...

AFM differs significantly from traditional microscopy techniques as it does not project light or electrons on the sample's surface to create its image. Instead, AFM utilizes a sharp probe while ...

Researchers in China have developed an electrical imaging technique using three-dimensional (3D) tomographic conductive atomic force microscopy (TC-AFM) to go beyond indirect characterization of ...

Researchers from Osaka University combine high-speed atomic force microscopy with a laser light source for real-time observation of azo-polymer films Osaka, Japan – Expanding our scientific ...

The deep learning algorithm developed by researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign is trained to remove the effects of the probe’s width from AFM microscope images. As reported in the ...

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, ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a way to investigate the surface features of some materials. It works by “feeling” or “touching” the surface with an extremely small probe. This provides a ...
