Approaching microtubule structure with the scanning tunneling microscope (STM).
We demonstrate that the scanning tunneling microscope can be used to obtain information about arrangement of tubulin subunits in the microtubule wall. Long rows of subunits with a periodicity of 3.8 +/- 0.4 nm were clearly visible in the images of microtubules. The separation between the rows of subunits was 4.8 +/- 0.4 nm. Close inspection of two images revealed another periodicity of 7.8 +/- ...
متن کاملScanning tunneling spectroscopy of single DNA molecules.
We briefly present the results of recent experiments of transverse scanning tunneling spectroscopy of homogeneous poly(dG)-poly(dC) DNA molecules and discuss them in the light of theoretical investigation. A semiempirical theoretical model is adopted to describe the transverse tunneling current across a DNA molecule placed between a metallic gold substrate and a metallic STM tip. We show that t...

متن کاملDesign of an electronic system for acquisition of the tunneling current signal of a Scanning Tunneling Microscope STM
An electronic system was designed to acquire tunneling current of a Scanning Tunneling Microscope. A tunneling current originates from the interaction between a conductive tip and a conductive or semiconductor sample. Lower currents than 100 nA were generated and from them, voltages were obtained in the order of 1 volt. Using this mechanism, it is possible to construct images of the atoms posit...
متن کاملMolecules on insulating films: scanning-tunneling microscopy imaging of individual molecular orbitals.
Ultrathin insulating NaCl films have been employed to decouple individual pentacene molecules electronically from the metallic substrate. This allows the inherent electronic structure of the free molecule to be preserved and studied by means of low-temperature scanning-tunneling microscopy. Thereby direct images of the unperturbed molecular orbitals of the individual pentacene molecules are obt...
